[QUOTE="UplandFreak, post: 1870579, member: 111854"] You are only limited by bullet weights. If somebody is going to shoot a 150gr bullet in a 308 I dont think there is any benefit over a 150gr bullet in a 708 (or 260 for that matter). .244 gets a little more complicated because bullet weights are pretty limited and max out around 115gr. But if you are asking me if I would rather shoot a 115gr bullet out of a 6mm CM vs a 115gr bullet out of a 6.5CM or 708 the answer is yes. If it was all about bullet diameter the 338 federal would have been the king among these little cartridges, yet it is all but dead. Idaho spring bear hunt I will be taking my bergara premier approach in 6mm creedmoor with 108gr eldms and my buddy will be using his tikka 708 shooting 150gr ballistic tips. My little 6mm will kill those black bears just as quickly as his 708. Its more about bullet choice and shot placement than bullet diameter. [/QUOTE]
