In a pre 64 M70 the fast majority of 308's were made in the FWT configuration as were the 243. To find a STD grade 308 will be difficult and expensive. I do know where a nice 308 FWT is if your interested.
If your considering a 30-06 the 308 is redundant and visa versa. With the proper bullet and it's placement there isn't an animal that can tell the difference. I prefer the 308 over the 06.
