[QUOTE="LXnastynotch93, post: 626569, member: 44170"] I'll be hunting deer mostly. My main reasons for choosing .308 are: -It's relatively easy to get -I can buy mil-surp -It's less expensive for match grade vs. other similar rounds -It won't wear out a barrel as quickly as high velocity, similarly sized rounds -It's a standard military round, so there's going to be a good amount of it floating around. Other calibers aren't produced in nearly as high quantities. As great of a round as .300WSM or even .300Win is, I don't want to have to pay through the nose for ammo unless I absolutely have to.
