Neither, lol.

Never mind. I'll keep my radio gear. I need knock down power. Besides all of my hand loading gear is .30.

But....with an M1 carbine you can pick up a pair of blackhawks and feed them all the same ammo

308 & 30/06 same cal. 30/06 will travel farther with load. But 308 is consistent. 8mm smacks the crosshair with load and consistency. The German mouser, either auto or bolt has been a consistant shooter. Swedish mouser was 8" longer and for some reason not as consistant. The 8" somehow reduced muzzle velocity.

Still shoots a .308 caliber bullet...but a light one. Mine was made by: Inland Mfg. General Motors Sept 1942. Also had one made by Rock-Ola Juke Box Co. I gave that one to my grandson.

So that’s where the knife in the trout tackle box came from. Wow. Never put it together before.

The shades I knew. Gun was sold for college pocket money. Etc.

Thx.

Made a fine birthday present, knowing that.

BM59 an Italian re-work of the Garand. What it should have been. .308 plus mag instead of clip.

My son was given a Lapua .338 magnum plus by his boss. It pushes a 250 grain bullet at 3500 fps. I would hate to be any where down range from that incoimng round!

.338 Lapua Magnum is a beast.
