A couple of years back I got a 300 WinMag for a 1000 yard target rifle, but that damn thing about beat my shoulder to pieces.

If a guy loaded his own, there are many options, and could work up some lighter recoil rounds, but I was using factory ammo. It sure ain't no plinking round!

All good choices but I stick with what I can get for reloading. If the military uses it then I know there will be a ton if brass out there, even if I have to buy it. The .308 is great because you can shoot it fir fun without it tearing up your shoulder, you can hunt basically anything around here, and it can reach out and hit at 1000 yards.
