Thread: Choosing calibre based on ammunition availablitiy

Thanks everyone for the advice. In retrospect, the relative simplicity of Option C should have been a massive hint that getting a .308 was the right choice. I suppose I will just have to pick something else to obsess about until I get licensed.
Also thanks for the good information surrounding lead in the carcass. It sounds like traditional cup and core bullets might be acceptable, which would make it a hell of a lot cheaper. I'll get to on to the missus about it.
Finally, thank you to those who offered to walk me through hand loading. I very much appreciate it.
Thanks, everyone.
