After drooling over the post/pictures by Mr. Swaggert and his collection of Gradous rifles, I realized that even he has a .308. Since I sold mine, a factory gun, to fund a 6.5mm build, I guess I should consider another .308 in my future because of its versatility and off-the-shelf ammunition available (for hunting), even though I reload. It would be used primarily for range work, to 1000 yards or so, and some hunting.
So, when buying a quality .308 barrel, many barrel makers offer 2 options; tightbore or standard bore. What are the advantages/disadvantages of each?
Thanks in advance...Sig Marine
Well, I just found the answer my own question: http://www.snipershide.com/shooting/snipers-hide-bolt-action-rifles/102380-tighter-bore-mean-faster-fps.html
