Default RE: .308 win. or 30-06 Long Range

ORIGINAL: statjunk

I'd vote for the .308 because there's a lot more available for it
Where do you shop? Everywhere I go has more '06 loads available than .308's.


because of the accuracy nod.
I always thought the reason the .308 took over the top spot at the national matches was because the M1A/M14 was a better platform than the M1 Garand. With new powders, I really find it hard to believe that the .308 will have much of an accuracy advantage. I'd really like to see some tests...

And, now... I think it's the AR15's chambered in 5.56 NATO that are winning the long range matches.
