Its just a matter of matching powder and projectiles like the solid copper jobbies.
Once youve grown out of the want of maximum speeds and settle for extremely good accuracy and better barrel life a few more clicks are neither here nor there.
I always have a chuckle to myself at the range when I see some body wanking on about their brakes then go and shoot their super hotted up wild cat magnum and forget to put their hearing protection in.
as they say on tv priceless!
There no point trying to give them shit because they cant hear anything for a week!

I had a 7RM that i wanted to cut down. So researched the fuck out of it and a 20" 7RM will only do the same as a 20" 284 or 280 7-08 308 but with more recoil and muzzle blast (fixed by suppressor) and waste powder. So i sold my 7RM and got a 308. This is just what i read. im not a ballistics expert but i did troll the net looking for an excuse to do it, but no one said it was a good idea and they were doing better than smaller cals
