But I am obviously going to spend some money to get quality 308 rounds to shoot further.

Texaspatriot- you are exactly right, I'm trying to keep that into consideration, if things get bad there is a ton more 308, 7.62x51 ammo.

Occasionally using other loads to go to a longer range. Probably a 175 grain?

Well obviously a lot of my ammo I will be plinking and having fun with is any surplus ammo I can get. With occasi

mentioned earlier, i understand the 308 throws a heavier bullet, and the 260 a lighter bullet faster. so which has better terminal ballistics from 10-700 yards

Thanks for the replies guys! Now you guys have opened up my new dilemma ha. I have decided to step up to a ar-10 type plat form for sure, now the questions is, 308 vs 260. Difference in feeding reliability, still knockdown power at 700 yards, and all that good stuff menti

Kachok- yeah, very un realistic ha! But I'm the type of person who likes to think out every given possible situation and be prepared no matter how far fetched ha. I know 308 is a great man stopper lol. But I was trying to figure out if 6.5 Grendel does it just as well, with less recoil, less...

Henschman. You are right. I do plan on shooting it a lot for more than just huntin lol. But I would also like this gun to be a gun I could rely on for home defense, etc. It truly will be multi purpose, with main purpose bein that it needs to take down a man sized target from 500-700 yards, but...

I do not intend to take any deer at 600-700 yards. Lol. I am also saving up for a 338 rum for very long range shots. I just wanted a cartridge that I can get out to 700 yards decently easily and still have enough power to say take down a man sized target. I have enough room to shoot to about...

Thanks for the reply! But yeah I totally get what your saying. But the 308 is coming out of a 16 inch tube. I know that affects it somewhat, but not sure how much. And I have also read the the 6.5 Grendel catches up with the energy of a 308 at around 650-700 yards?

I know, there are many threads about this. But couldn't quite find the info I want after hours of searching. I have a few questions! First off. I plan on buying a new rifle. I havent decided if I want a ar-15 in 6.5 Grendel with a 20 inch barrel or the bushmaster 308 moe (don't give me...

I bet you do, as my first 1911, I love it, and the quality is great

My bad I didn't see the bottom of your post. I feel better now Lol. Thanks

So I'm confused. Is it fine? Or terrible? And yeah i don't know if he did

Thanks Jason, Im partially new to 1911's and never seen a barrel look like that before.
