i know you can easily shoot steel or paper at 1000+ yards with a 308.... but how far can you ethically hunt with a 308 on deer sized game???
the reason i ask is im about to PCS to texas, and i am going to build up one of my rifles... either a 300 win or 308 win... i like the 308 cuz of how cheap it is to shoot.... but you cant argue with the numbers on the 300 win.... i know you can def find some spots on hogs and deer in texas where you can seriously reach out, and this is why i ask.....
the 308 is a solid sub 3/4 moa rifle....
the model 70 is chambered in 7mm and is more of a traditional rifle around 1+ MOA
you thoughts?
