[QUOTE="Jluck, post: 1047901, member: 76721"] If you desire a 30 caliber for hunting why would someone pick a 308 over the '06 if all other variables being equal? If the 308 is offering lower recoil in a lighter rifle (or same weight for that matter) while shooting the same weight projectile velocities cannot be the same with out something else involved (changing physics). ( Muzzle break, but pad etc). Recoil is often influenced by perception. The '06 holds more powder plain and simple. When I have trouble sleeping, I think about the 308.... Snooze fest.... Until I think about rebarreling it to 260 AI or 7mm-08 or..... **** it I am wide awake again! [/QUOTE]
