Why a 308 if you do go a bolt? I personally can't stand that caliber - possibly because its a yobbos gun over here. If you wanna go something like that go the old 30-06. For one its not american! and its going to go a few fps quicker which is really negligible. But it does go an extra 50gns heavier than the 308. (not that you'd want/need to run 220's or 250's through a 30-06 unless you were bush hunting sambar). regardless of which one you go for I reckon 7mm08, 270, 7mm rem mag or 30-06 are the calibers to choose from.

Thats just my opinion and its not right or wrong mate.
