[QUOTE="Old Rooster, post: 2620995, member: 108576"] In the right hands the 308 can do more than just kill deer,hogs and such. Snipers have used the 308 as well for a reason. The longest confirmed kill shot with a 7.62x51 round (which is an equivalent round in virtually all respects excepting chamber pressure, which is slightly lower), was made at a distance of 1250m (1367 yards), by Staff Sergeant Jim Gilliand, in September 2005, using an M-24 sniper rifle. Not bad at all. [/QUOTE]
