Thread: advise please

I see you are putting on lay buy so cost is obviously a factor so .308 will be cheaper to shoot if you don't reload as you can get cheap steel cased ammo for it which means you will shoot it more and this will allow you to get to know your rifle better and make you a better shot/hunter.

Nothing wrong with a 7mm-08 as a calibre though.

Hope this helps!

You can buy barnaul etc steel cased stuff cheaper for practice for the. 308 that is way cheaper, the brand stuff like hornady and federal costs the same for both.
