[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 63094, member: 10"] The 308 with a good long range bullet is certainly powerful enough for anything you listed on the menu. The 7mm Rem Mag will certainly be flatter shooting out to 500 yards or at any range depending on the bullet you use in the 7mm but bullet drop is easy to figure so if you get good with either, either will have plenty of performance to do what you want. The only limiting factor may be the replacement barrel and its fit to your receiver. Being a rifle builder, I am not a fan of the one size fits all idea with prethreaded, prechambered barrels but most do shoot relately well. Either will work fine, us as the pilot is the most limiting performance factor. If you practice alot and get proficient with either, you will be able to shoot out to very long distances. The 308 would certainly be easier on the powder can as well as the shoulder. Good Shooting!! Kirby Allen(50) [/QUOTE]
