    see the how short with 270 thread......
    I used a 20" non suppressed 270 for 20plus years as main rifle....suppressed it was a heap nicer rifle to use...the 308 or 7mm-8 wont do anything much better....by picking your loads carefully there is stuff all in it between 270 and 308.....and Ive owned both for last few years and then decided the 308 needed a new home as the 270 could do all the same just as well.
    you COULD buy cheap 308,cut it short and suppress it...and if you dont shoot past 250 yards NORMALLY .....well you could be perfectly happy..... but you could do that with the 270 too...suppressed at 20" they are a good all round rifle.
