Greetings Scotty,
Good choice of calibre. My first new center fire rifle was a Remington Model 700 .308, purchased when I was in my late twenties, over forty years ago. It is still here after about 800 rounds down the bore. It now has a Bushnell 10 power tactical scope and is sighted in for 150 grain Norma projectiles ahead of 46 grains of DuPont IMR 4064. This produces 2,800 feet per second in the 22 inch barrel. Other rifles mostly get to go armed tramping these days and the .308 is used for play loads but still is able to be returned to zero should the desire to take it into the field once more. It is here for life.
Regards Grandpamac.
