[QUOTE="YZ-80, post: 1823932, member: 109229"] I have rekindled my love affair with my .308, which I had placed in dry-dock, back in January of 2016 when I got my 6.5x47L and went headlong into 6.5 Nirvana. I feel like a teenager again! I’ve posted about my next rifle, asking you guys what I should get in a nice light-weight hybrid type semi- “long rangeish” rifle. I’ve kinda got my eyes on a Seekins Havak Element, and was disappointed that they did not offer a 7mm-08. I was at the range yesterday, shooting my Savage FCP-SR - that .308 I put away 3 years ago, printing .25 to .5 MOA groups with boring regularity with that new ELD-M load you guys advised me on. There was a nice guy there (funny how you always seem to run into nice people at the range - If you’re not running into Schmucks) and he was kind enough to let me spin his Silencerco Harvester onto my Savage. My son and I had the pleasure of shooting suppressed for the first time - and we were hooked. Anyway, I told this guy about my agonizing over what cartridge to get next........that I was considering a 7mm-08, PRC, etc. He looked at me and said, “Why don’t you just get a .308?” The more I think about it, the more I’m thinking he’s right.
