I hunt with a .308 with a 16.5" barrel and it has performed well for me.
The longest shot on game with it was at 162 yards, and it killed cleanly.
Very accurate with Remington Coreloct 150 grain cartridges.
I do have one expanded projectile I recovered from a frontal shot on a white tail doe at about 85 yards.
That shot was also a one shot kill.
The blast dosent bother me anymore than any other rifle.
My Rifle is a Ruger Frontier, but I mounted a Leupold VX 2 3x9x40 over the reciever and had a one inch spacer and a packmyer added to the stock to increase LOP to 13.5 which is my preference.
Hope this helps.
I have not shot game at 400 yards with it however.
