[QUOTE="Stonyman88, post: 2490589, member: 121659"] Lots of questions you have, one thing, I have a 308 on a G .33/40 mauser action, 18" barrel and shoot 165 gr HPBT, it shoots them at 300 yds in 1 1/2" groups, but also like the 7mmX08 and the 139 gr Hornady, never had one get away with this one either. Less recoil on the mauser action with 139 Hornady, also have 2 Bergara's one 6.5 C and one 6.5 PRC, the PRC is a nail driver, .17 at 100 and under or at under 1" at 300, very little recoil but also 9 lbs. So if your going to shoot F class, opt for a ,6.5 or .284, but ask some F class shooter of their opinion. Any other Q feel free to ask. I've shot over 175 deer, goats and other 4 legged guys, never had one disappear, the 7mmx 08 is my favorite to hunt with, light weight accurate, and action is so smooth, if you like I can send a pic, it's all customized . Oh, the last thing is ammo, or reloading 308 is much easier to find these days, 6.5 right now good luck but coming back in supply . [/QUOTE]
