    People often overlook how well the longer tapered calibres like the 270,280, 7x 57 and 30-06 cycle through the action compared to stubbier ones.

    True but the 308 cycles well enough. The 308’s parent was designed for semi/full auto battlefield applications, reliable feeding was one of the prerequisites

    375H&H is supposed to be the gold standard for ultra smooth cycling
