RE: .308 vs. 300 WSM for Girlfriend?
My wife loves to shoot and hunt but there is no way she would shoot the 300 WSM. People are different but my wife hates recoil. She will shoot the 308 if she has to but prefers the 250 Savage for deer and the 6.5x55 or 7mm-08 for bigger critters. I would take Trailers advise and have her shoot one before spending the money. I once talked my wife into trying my 7 Mag and she was mad at me for two weeks.
