    .308 Ballistics

    "wee little case" hahaha, -for anyone wanting to keep their rifle but wanting more oomph with the heavier high BC projectiles Ream the chamber to saum, same case length, just check it fits in the mag.

    Open up the bolt face, 300saum isnt so wee anymore

    Scott trail at ssrnz.co.nz can do it for you in a heartbeat, just give him a call or email.

    Otherwise the 308 with the 168 grainers is still good, just acknowledge its LR limitations and work within them.
    A big fast bullet beats a little fast bullet every time
