Nosler's reloading manual, in the foreward for the 308 section, describes the 308 Win as "an inherently accurate cartridge". That's not the first and only place I've seen that kind of language used by folks that have shot a lot of bullets downrange; might be something there.

Now that that's said, most of us here know, the rifles that fire any round, are each unique. No two are ever identical, no matter how much alike they may be. There are 30-06s that may be more accurate than a similar rifle in 308 and vice versa.

I read the article linked to the previous post, and it was interesting, but I'm still not convinced that the subject rifles are so identical that only the cartridge chambering is the difference.

Given all the variables, it seems unwise to issue any blanket statement implying always or never with regard to cartridge accuracy.
