[QUOTE="Michael Eichele, post: 1016572, member: 1007"] Superior is a very subjective term. Superior in what/which category(s)? Assuming you're reloading, you'll never beat the 308s energy with a 6.5 or 7mm Grendel but they'll be superior to the 308 in the recoil category. If it's trajectory you're after, they all have similar potential. If it's windage, again about the same. What is it you're looking for? If it's matches, 260 rem is a great overall balance of recoil and wind fighting abilities. If it's 1000 yard deer hunting, the 708 is a bit better and the 308 better yet. It just depends on what you're after. If I recall, doesn't Winchester make a super short magnum something? I think that's a shorter case than the 308 win family of cases. [/QUOTE]
