    You will have change from 2k (if buying new) and be sorted for any bush hunting in the country.

    (Strange as I type this I realized I don't currently have a .308.
    Although I have plans to rebarrel a .223 to .300blk so similar enough for CNI bush)
    Buy my howa you have o sights for bush and swap stocks and put on scope for tops with m brake or suppressor
