Ep. 458 | .308 SUPER is Better Than .300 SUPER WSM???

The .308 SUPER is here—and it might be one of the most interesting new .30-caliber cartridge concepts we've tested. In this episode, we put the Barnes 212-grain LRX Bore Rider to work in a .308-based case and answer the questions everyone is asking: · Did we hit our target velocity? · How does the .308 SUPER compare ballistically to the .300 SUPER WSM? · What does terminal performance look like in 10% ordnance gel at 100 yards—and at extended range? · Who is this cartridge built for? · What could the future hold with a purpose-built, high-pressure case? And the big question: Could the .308 SUPER outperform Ryan Muckenhirn and Mark Boardman's beloved .300 SUPER WSM? Long-range shooter, handloader, hunter, or cartridge nerd, this episode dives into the data, testing, and where the .308 SUPER could fit in the future of .30-caliber performance.
