Comments about shooting .303 ammo through a .308 bore

I am not sure if the fellow is uninformed, or intentionally crass, but that is not a statement I would make on the internet with my name attached to it.

You also have to remember that is how they were referred to until very recently. I suspect it is likely a older guy (makes sense if he was working in the middle 80s), and that is likely how they have always been referred to in his life. Not saying it is right or wrong, just that historically that is what the native populations were called (and technically according to the Indian Act, still what they are).

Let me say I don't want to derail this any further, but I would like to be clear about my small comment. The issue I caution of is not the exact terminology of the (any) groups, they change very frequently and keeping up would be a job in itself. My point raises from the comment that the original author supposed the construction and sale of a particular product to a specific ethnic group, that is the dodgy bit of ground that I wouldn't cross. The rifle could be better described as for Canadian wilderness use, for example. Targeting a product to a specific ethnic group in your marketing has been seen in a negative light for a very long time.

As I said, I personally would not express myself, especially identifying as a employee or former employee of a company in that manner.

All good conversation though, just had to clear up my thoughts is all.

Shifting the topic back on rudder, with a .311 down a .308 bore, has anyone observed shedding of jackets or other projectile issues at either service or higher velocities? How does accuracy compare, is there any benefit to the tighter bore in that regard, or is it a complete wash?

I agree, I remember a friend of mine wearing a FUBU t-shirt, i said what does that mean? he said for us by us.
