    If you can't decide between a 243win and a 308 win, get a 260 or 7mm08. All the same parent case, some more popular than others.
    If you shorten any of them you will loose more MV/inch of barrel cut with the smaller bore diameter. ie 243will loose the most, 308 the least per inch shortened.
    Experience. What you get just after you needed it.
