    One positive of the .308 is the (relatively speaking) cheap surplus ammo if you want to send a lot of lead down range for fun. For me this is reason enough alone to have a .308.

    If you only fire your rifle 5 times a year while out hunting then I don't think it really matters what calibre, it's just 5 rounds.

    I don't reload though, perhaps if I did then I would have another opinion.
    Waldo Peens and CBH Australia like this.
