With the newer bullets you can get good accuracy at distance with one.

Not saying that scope is too much for a 308, just too much for a lightweight sporter rifle designed for carrying. I have a heavy barrel 308 with a fat fore end stock that I have a 6x24x50 scope mounted on top and weighs over 10 lbs. Good for its purpose which is long range target shooting and sitting in a shooting house, but it's not an "all around rifle". Not a gun I'm going to carry in the woods or tote up a tree in a climbing stand.
