    There's lots of reasons for me it was the reloading challenge and to be honest it was the most fun I ever have had shooting a centrefire rifle.
    If I got serious about building one for hunting it would probably be a 358 Winchester.
    308 is a pretty great compromise too
    now with sub x freely available and it slinging the same bullet as I do in 300blk (from a blocked 308 length action). but then the ability to stretch out further than the 150m ish limit of the supers in 300blk
    its a full circle for me as I started out with 308 and "moved on"
