It seems that when I was in my teens and early twenties, about 30 or more years ago.....I remember all kinds of arguements at sportsmens clubs with my dad about the .308 vs 30/06 and the 30/06 vs .270...and why that little pip sqeek .243 should be banned and then the craze that was stirred by the 7mm MAG.. I remember dem ole' boys gittin' hot and heavy about the virtues of all those comparisons...I sortta miss dem days, seems today we've become like sheep...or cattle lining up at the block!! OR are we always distracted by the GAME COMMISSION coming up with a new one that has us scratching our heads again.....we don't have time for those trivial arguements..I MISS EM"

I also miss the good old days when it was argued around the camp stove and everyone had their own ideas. Now we all run off every which way and gotta have the newest blaster. Think this year I will try the 30/30 one more time unless the .300 grabs my eye.

I have always considered the .308 a great cartridge, too bad it just doesn't have much power. Used to tell a guy that it just bounced off deer and he needed something worth shooting like my .300 Win mag. Used to get the fur flying.

Why use a 300Mag for deer ?,with a 308Win there will be some meat left for you to eat!
