I beg to differ on the 308, while it is a good cartridge with many load options, I think he is in the right ball game. He is definitely about a quarter bore, fully capable of what he wants to do. I would tend to go with something more rare then the 308 or even the 30-06. Rounds like the 6.5x55 Swede, 257 Roberts and 6mm Remington all have amazing ballistics for the cases. Plus, when you boil down to it if you hand load you can crank out some outstanding loads for each of those rifles.
