I can understand a choice being made "just because", but can't fathom any other real world difference.

Right on the money Tahr

The big ol "flatter trajectory chestnut"

Hunter308 use a ballistics calculator to get the ACTUAL differences @ 100, 200 and even 400, then post them here. I suspect you'll find that the average shooter out there is not able to shoot groups where those differences will matter in the slightest

Yep and depending what ammos you select to compare the 308 will be flatter, not that it makes any difference it just shows how close they are.
