[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 2620688, member: 313"] If it can't get done with a .308win, it probably can't get done. Every critter that I've taken in my lifetime could have been taken with the time-tested .308. My Canadian guide told me that most of the moose are taken by hunters with .308/30-06 cartridges. I've shot-out a good number of custom barrels. Some only lasted about 1,000 rds. My .308 is closing in on 2,000 rds and when I checked the bore with a Tesla the other day, I was shocked at how much throat erosion NEVER took place. I'd guess that the barrel life will exceed 3,000-4,000 rds. How many wizz-bang cartridges can make claim to that? [/QUOTE]
