[QUOTE="Michael Eichele, post: 132070, member: 1007"] [ QUOTE ] that is why the 308 was appealing to me. This gun would be primary used for north american game (mostly whitetail), I do have a 378 weatherby at my disposal, but again, 90.00+box gets pretty expensive. Considering I dont reload I wanted something cheaper, but long range ability. [/ QUOTE ] In that case, the 308 gets my vote! It is a good caliber to learn how to reload on and to learn the principals of LR shooting. It is also alot more cost effective than others. Even at 20-25 bucks a box for federal gold medal match, it is still fairly cost effective. My only recomendation is a 24" minimum barrel for the 308 if you intend on shooting 1000 yards. 26" is better. Dont overlook the 700 PSS or some of the savages in 10FP. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
