    I’m just thinking opsec here, why wouldn’t you choose the ubiquitous .308? I mean even ol’ Charles showed us the 30-06 can be effective even if you miss and it is a much more common round.

      Better accuracy and mainly thinking of the longer range, to give oneself a wider choice of nests. You’re right though, the .308 would be much more difficult to trace. The truly important bit is sighting in the scope and practice.
