[QUOTE="MontanaMarine, post: 986487, member: 268"] The 308 might be a little easier on some of the 'softer' bullets inside 500 yards. If you look at 500 yard terminal ballistics, the 308 driflts a bit more,but not by much, and still delivers nearly 2000 ft-lbs of energy on target. I shoot the 208 AMax at 2600 fps in my 308. Here's how it stacks up to the same 208 at 3000 fps from a 300 WinMag, at 500 yards, 4000' asl, Retained velocity: 2068/2420 fps Retained energy: 1974/2704 ft-lbs 10 mph drift: 12.2"/10.0" drop (100yd zero): 10.50/7.50 moa [/QUOTE]
