[QUOTE="simone, post: 2902577, member: 103268"] Yes, i like granted ammo availability and wide ammo selection for decades if not centuries, long barrel life, low recoil, no need for a muzzle brake, no need for ear protections while hunting, punch suitable also for bigger games at reasonable distances. I think it's hard to beat for european hunting. Also roe deer are such a small target that you can't stretch the distance enough to make a flatter caliber this useful. Overall i am convinced most hunting can be done with most rifle calibers if you know how to use your rifle, when to renounce to a shot and if you place the bullet in the right spot. The choose lf the caliber is a process where you have to evaluate pros and cons, there is always a tradeoff. In europe some traditionalists like to bash the 308 because of its not too flat trajectory and not ideal wind resistance. I find it silly, these things have much more to do with the bullet than with the caliber unless you go magnum or you use one of these newer ultra aerodynamic 7mm. My favourite caliber i know of, on paper, is the 7 SAUM. I think that is the most versatile caliber for hunting, among with the 308. Unfortunately the 7 SAUM has disappeared. [/QUOTE]
