Hello everybody! I am doing a full scale physics project about projectile motion! Today i am here to ask for some info. I see a lot of people using the .308 caliber over the .300 wm, is there a significant enough amount of accuracy in the .308 to switch over that caliber? I understand the .300 wm shoots around 500 feet per second faster but would you choose accuracy over velocity? Help!

Oh and by the way i will be shooting the Browning .300 win mag x-bot medallion to test.

I have read that i can interchange the .300 wm and .308 cartridge
