Is the .308 Win 7.62 X 51 still a Long Range Hunting Cartridge?
2025年1月26日 · Now a 6.5 CM, (essentially, a 6.5-308 that is shortened a bit) is the greatest long range Elk killing round ever. So … the 308 is now way more effective than it ever was since it's simply a "necked up" and lengthened 6.5 Creedmoor.
Range Report .308 Ballistics with 20" barrel? - Sniper's Hide
2010年3月25日 · I'm wondering the difference in bullet drop and wind-drift from 100-1000 yds between a 24" barreled .308 and a 20". I've assumed that the data on Federal's ammo boxes corresponds with a 24" barrel. I've got a compact remingtion 700 …
18" barrel in the 308 - Long Range Hunting Forum
2013年4月11日 · Totally different cartridge and ballistics. 308 is very efficient in shorter barrels compared to a caliber like the 6.5/284. Which is optimized in a 26in tube. 6.5 bullets also have better BCs. But depending on what he plans on doing with the rifle it maybe exactly what he needs. I bought a 308 with a 16.5 barrel.

Recommended Powder & Bullet for Long Range .308
2012年2月27日 · Re: Recommended Powder & Bullet for Long Range .308 Oh ok great thanks, i am pretty much just looking for a starting off point. I was shooting 155gr A-max with about 45gr with IMR 4320 and was being affected by wind too much. I thought 180gr would have more of a drop. The 155gr is more flat than 180gr but is affected by wind too much.
Best bullets for long range 308 | Sniper's Hide Forum
2021年6月29日 · I use 2 loads. 185 juggs do well at longer distances ("long" for a short barrel 308). Then I have a load for a Hornady 155 BTHP I use most often at short distances including the 300m range 5 min from my house. I tuned the velocity of the 155 load so the drop matches the 185's to 400m. That 155 load ends up being cheap, low recoil, and accurate ...
12.5” AR-10 .308 SBR Thoughts? | Sniper's Hide Forum
2019年6月13日 · A 12.5" .308 is pushing a 175gr at similar speeds to what a 12.5" 300blk pushes a 110gr bullet. Far more energy on target with much higher ballistic coefficients. I'm not going to defend the practicality of the .308 SBR though as it is a heavy pig. With a loaded mag and suppressor attached I'm looking at 12-13 pounds.
Range Report 308 18" barrel Velocity - Sniper's Hide
2010年1月14日 · Re: 308 18" barrel Velocity 168 GMM is accurate but does not have the best ballistics available for extended range. It's fine to 600-800 yards and is fine at that range out of an 18" barrel. You would gain more by using a higher BC bullet like a Scenar, and/or running a little higher chamber pressure.
