[QUOTE="jbronner13, post: 2629505, member: 123550"] Wouldn’t take a corvette off-roading…..it’s always about how and what you are using something for. I am just echoing what others have said but the 308 works for me up here in the northeast for anything I would hunt. I could take it out west and shoot elk at ethical distances for me confidently (under 400 yards) because I practice with it a lot. I am able to do that because of great barrel life and cheap, readily available ammo. But again the old saying “when all you have is a hammer everything looks like a nail.” If you need a gun, cartridge for a very specific route/task, get that specialty product. What I find so enticing about the 308/30-06 families is our ability to now easily make switch barrel rifles and swap out barrels in 15 minutes or less. What’s not to like with this? Especially as a hand loader with resizing dies. [/QUOTE]
