I'm looking very favorably toward one of the Tikka T3x Arctic rifles patterned after the Canadian Rangers' C19s.

I'm a sucker for dual diopter iron sights on a carbine and I may take the plunge. The rifle is available in .308Win and 6.5CM... I load, shoot, and really like both cartridges for a variety of tasks so ammo is already sorted out.

They issue that in Canada with the 180gr Nosler AB in the .308 and I'd see no reason not to load that as well. I also have a pet load in the 6.5 shooting the 143 ELDX.

Which would you pick?
 
Seems fitting in the 308. Not too much you can’t do with a solid 308.
