By this logic, a .223 would be twice as nice, and .22lr double that.
yes I agree that is good logic . Well not the 22lr part because he wants to shoot 500yds with this rifle .

Here is my quote and good logic from above
Quote:
the fact your not going to carry it all day hunting , I'd go with a 20" heavy or bull barrel . Short action 308 only because of the cost and amount of ammo available . If not 308 , I'd stay with the short action in 7-08 , or 243 . . Really if your taking hunting/shooting game off the table a nice 223 will get you to 500yds nicely at a nice low cost per shot .
Although not the same advice , it's kinda close
