RE: Is the 308 the best all around round?
For all you guys telling him he needs a 30-06, if you look at his signature this is what you see:
Browning BAR 3006
Winchester M70 270
Remington 870
Browning A-Bolt 270 WSM
CVA WOLF
Mathews S2
T/C Prohunter 300 Win Mag
Mossy Oak Prostaff
So I'm guessing he was intitially looking for a more "fur friendly" cartridge to fill the gap on the lower end of his spectrum, that would be able to serve dual duties...
