Next rifle build? (Poll)

[p_ham]

It's occurred to me that I should probably have a backup elk rifle for this winter.
Primary will be my 38-56 Improved lever action I built.

My 300 needs a new stock and scope bases.

308 needs the barrel cut and ported, suppressor made (yes I have a license), trigger, and stock.

I know which one will be cooler, and which will be more economical. What say you?

If you were a deer hunter, the .308 all day.

300 WM makes more sense. The 308 sounds way more interesting to follow on the internet.

308 should be plenty enough for most elk scenarios, just my opinion

 

[elkhnter]

Do both. I like spending someone else’s money!

.300 is all but ready and hunting season is close.
