So, Bobby...being the calculating trained warrior NCO that you are. Take the appropriate action, Execute!
your standard grunt level CQB is just putting rounds and rounds on scary stuff till it stops scaring you!
I know nothing. I’ll run some data through the ballistic calculator next week. Frankenstein loads won’t get you much in barter or in interoperability when the fecal matter spatters However keep in mind that all the dudes shooting 243 and 7wsm in competitions were only getting about 4000 rounds down a barrel before it was worn out from all that hot powder in the throat.

Agreed Bob. Little hot loads like that, are a crutch for poor shooting skills IMO or when you are competing and have a sponsor, money is no object. You mis read the wind or distance and its a lot more forgiving at 4000fps. That's why now they have 308 matches where only 308s compete. Levels the playing field. I still think the 300 WM is hard to beat all around. One reason the secret service used it for years and perhaps still do.
What intrigues me is my assumption that it should allow me to just build another upper and pin it to my existing .308 ? Wouldn’t it be the same lower in AR 10 configuration? Charles, Bobby?

It’s a sledgehammer for sure. Not a pleasure to shoot at least without a muzzle brake or suppressor. Want a 338 class can to put on it and a new long range optic before I start shooting it again Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I just don't want to wind up missing a digit or limb. I can sometimes get in a hurry to get results.

If he were actually shooting at a package of turkey bacon I would call that a public service!
