I wouldn't own a 308 bolt gun but thats just me.

i love when people post strong opinions like this with absolutely no explanation
it seems to really help the OP in their decision with absolutely no basis to go on

7 mom 08 allows you to potentally buy the same bullets for it and the 7 mag if you reload. 7mm 08 has better ballistics than 308 for common ranges. harder to find round just getting popular

308 is a round that becomes scarce at times but is widely available on most walmart shelves normally and has lots and lots of data on different loads for different situations. 308 is a proven caliber that is a perfect fit for bolt action hunting rifles in N America. I own 2 and everything I have shot has fallen.


I have no experience with the 270 rounds but I know 270 wsm is not as readily available on store shelves and inversely does not disappear in a "gun scare"
