[QUOTE="Thomas George Kontou, post: 167065, member: 9148"] Hey people, new to this forum and have read a lot of the posts, seems like you all know a thing or two about long range hunting :). I am also new to long range hunting which brings me to my question. Looking to set up a nice long range rifle and have the .308 winchester caliber in mind. I figure if its good enough for the US army snipers it should be good enough for a humble little deer and goat hunter down here in Australia. Does anyone have any input as to wether or not this is a good caliber for this sort of thing. Is this caliber capeable of taking game out to (or close to) 1000 yards (834 meters), accurately and humanely? thanks all, take care. [/QUOTE]
