[QUOTE="PillsburyDoughboy, post: 5602537, member: 14197"] Absolutely nothing wrong with the .308. And in some cases might be better. In a lightweight or festherweight rifle u will feel more in the backend in terms of recoil. So that would be a consideration. 6.5 CM gives u slightly better trajectory 0-400. Depending on one's zero and ammo selection you could hold dead nuts zero to 400 and be good to go on most big game. I generally recommend the Leupold scopes and getting a CDS Dial sent to the factory for the load you plan on shooting and be done with it. Get a Laser range finder and spend some time shooting in different shooting positions off the bench before you go hunting to simulate field positions and you should be gold. Good Luck in whatever you choose. [/QUOTE]
