[QUOTE="Muddyboots, post: 2620949, member: 63925"] Everyone wants to compare the .308 to CM but with newer bullets, better powders the .308 is no slouch in comparison out to 5-600 yards hunting scenarios. In fact virtually no difference except .308 is shooting heavier bullets. So looking at factory ammo Hornady 6.5CM 143 ELDX VS .308 178 ELDX and slight edge to .308 at 500 yards. The .308 has 1397ftlbs vs 1318 ftlbs for the CM. Pretty much still gets it done. [ATTACH type="full"]394800[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]394801[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]394801[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
