[QUOTE="Michael Eichele, post: 899063, member: 1007"] I think MR2005s point was that it doesn't make sense to ream out a short action 308 to 3006. He!! You'd have to take the bolt out just to unload a chambered round. As far as comparing a 22lr to what the original posters needs are, even if one is trying to learn drop, wind, tof etc...isn't a fair comparison. Yes, it recoils a lot less but is not adequate for 1000 yard targets or 300 yard deer hunting. There are a lot of choices and some great ones that would work for the OPs needs. It just so happens that for what he needs and all the choices, the 308 really is at the top of the list. Especially since he indicated he may go factory. [/QUOTE]
