My .223 is 1:12 so I’m limited to 55gn rounds, though I would be confident to headshot out to 200m. Wouldn’t want to push it any further though. If I take the .308 I’ll have the firepower for anything, but will get really expensive if I start shooting everything that moves! Decisions decisions!

Take both rifles.
