Man there is some rubbish on this thread. You will be very happy with your 308 mate. If you want to shoot a bit further, lets say for argument sake 500m..., 168eldm/amax/tmk with a good dose of 2208...

Energy doesn't kill things projectiles do. Just need the right type for the velocity and put it in the right place. Otherwise the 223 would never kill anything.

.308 Winchester Hands down the most versatile hunting cartridge. You can run a genuinely short barrel (16” or even less). A midway length is perfect (18-20”). A longer barrel (22-24”) adds a...

Another vote for 308 from me of course. On the Bergara have you tried the mountain premier? It's not what I would call an ultralight but it is a lot lighter than the extreme.

either will work.....I had same decision a while back,nearly went with the .308 but saw reason...I have enough .270 projectiles to see me out.....

Do that. And make it a nice 24" one to do the cartridge justice.
