[QUOTE="shuamee, post: 711290, member: 36886"] well hes not a very good shot hes only hunted with a 30-30 as far as i know. i reload my 308s and really around here theres nothin u cant kill with a 308. he wont have any distance shots to amount to anything. most likely nothin over 150 yards. ive been wantin to start doin some distance shooting myself and hes wantin to do that with me so i been tryin to push a 10 on him. 308 mainly bc i reload them but also factory ammo is cheap and u can find it in any store. i had a 300rum for a couple years and plain out loved it. shot good recoil didnt bother me at all but the ammo was just too high when u could find it and even to reload them i couldnt get but 70 out of a pound of powder. just too expensive and really no need for it i this area. for him to go from a 3030 to a 3006 or 300 or 7mm it would be way too expensive for him to try to learn to shoot at any distance. and for the wsm caliber lets just say im not a fan at all. nearly every one of them i have seen have cracked case necks almost every shot and the wsm is nothin u cant do with hand loading in the reg mag version. the only advantage to the wsm to me is the short action and thats not anything i care about. not tryin to step on any toes i personaly just have no use for them [/QUOTE]
