Hello folks. Been lurking a short time and want to join in the fun. Appears to be a lot of great information and experience here - which is good because I have very little!!
I am 50 years old and my interests revolve around the outdoors. I have hunted and fished this part of the world since I was able to cast a lure or pull a trigger! Dove season starts here on Sunday and unfortunately I'm gonna have to sit in the shade and heckle my buddies for a while. I had back surgery last week so I'm on the injured reserves for a while.
My interest in the .308 platform is due to the infestation of hogs where I hunt. I have a Ruger SR556 that has been a tack driver and a fantastic tool for deer harvest. Every deer I shoot is a neck shot at under 150 yds. The Ruger has been perfect for that task... However, it is not ideal for a tough foe like the hogs. The .308 AR platform should be perfect for my needs. So here I am!
