Not sure why you would need a second shot using Hornady training ammo, goats I've shot with it have been dropped on the shot.

Shot lots with Hornady training. Sometimes it works well sometimes not so much.

My dad has done similar to what you're considering, except the other way. Shelved his Winchester 308 and now solely uses an SKS.

The land owner wanted a cull, but we took legs off quite a few. Goat meat makes a good sausage. Originally Posted by Dundee

um yes....."300BLK was designed and developed specifically for U.S. military SOF (Special Operations Forces) assaulters/operators who need a nice, quiet, lo-vis/lo-pro 300 BLK blaster for dynamic CQB/CQC (Close Quarters Battle/Close Quarters Combat) and medium-range engagments out to 440 yards"....

Just because it was developed for, and sees limited use by SF, doesn't mean they "have gone to 300Blackout". 5.56 is still the predominant caliber.

[QUOTE=steven;302222
There is at least one recorded instance of a platoon being tied down by Enfield fire from 500yds+ and they could not respond to it. Funny how the AR15 was poo pooed for Vietnam yet it was ideal and the M14 was not, and here we are again at the opposite end of the range card where a 308 is most useful.[/QUOTE]
I thought each platoon had a sniper with a 14lb .50 cal Barrett strapped to his back....had he gone to get 'Starbucks'??????While I might not be as good as I once was, Im as good once as I ever was!

Nope. Snipers are usually a company asset. You have to be spesh for the OC to give you a sniper.I thought each platoon had a sniper with a 14lb .50 cal Barrett strapped to his back....had he gone to get 'Starbucks'??????Scouser likes this.
