[QUOTE="johnnyk, post: 1629607, member: 307"] I have owned three .308's and one .30-06. The 1st .308 was an older Savage 110 J series and superbly accurate. Alas, a friend thought it was magic and had to have it The 2nd and 3rd are still with me. One is a Savage 110 action and HS Precision stock with the barrel off of a model 12 BVSS. It is superbly accurate, now. The other is a DPMS AR-10 that I'm playing with and modifying. The only "aught6" I ever owned was a gift from a guy who I suspected was sleeping with my first wife. It was a Winchester 70, blued/synthetic w/Leupold 3x9. Great gift but was not accurate. During load development and the search for at least an MOA load, I came to the conclusions that I'm at today. He definitely was getting "free pokes" and the -06 kicks too much for no more than it delivers. If I have to endure magnum recoil then I want magnum performance. Oh, the Savage .308 barrel is setting in a corner here in the man cave. Been replaced w/a Shilen 6mmBR. Fun, fun, fun! The 112BVSS in .300WinMag just got it's factory barrel (shot out) replaced w/a Pac-Nor 28", 1-9t, 5g .300WinMag. Nothing wrong with either the .308 or .30-06, people are different and have different preferences. Hey, that's why restaurants have menu's. No one I know eats just cheeseburgers, all the way. Safe shooting. [/QUOTE]
