[QUOTE="HBoothe, post: 1993609, member: 115172"] FWIW: In this time of component scarcity, choosing a weapon that has the highest likelihood of finding ammunition/components would seem to be the prudent choice. I don't think that, in practical terms for hunting, either of those cartridges will be significantly better ballistically than the other at the range you're listing (300yd). I think that leaves the .308W as the choice because of the availability of the 7.62x51 ammunition/brass. --HC [/QUOTE]
