[QUOTE="Buffalobob, post: 406726, member: 8"] I do not understand the theory behind short barreled 308's for longrange work because like most other cartridges, it will benefit from more barrel length. Secondly, while the 175 SMK works very well as a hunting bullet for medium sized animals, the 155's in several brands can give you more velocity with almost exactly the same BC. This translates to less drop and more distance before going subsonic. [/QUOTE]
