Why choose 308?

According to Chuck Hawks
I guess I could see if that was annual ammunition sold, but I can almost guarantee that there are many, many times more 6.5 Creedmoor rifles sold than 30-30's. I just couldn't see that as a rifles sold list. If I am wrong, I am wrong... but it really doesn't seem like it could be right.

There might be more current creedmore rifles being sold in the past year, but the 30-30 has been a staple for well more than a half century. The rifles are already out there... but that has little to do with ammunition sold. As said before, not everyone goes to the range, I would argue that most rifle guys across the country do not go to ranges. I would argue that more guys going to the ranges are the ones interested in sport and competition which is also the same segment that the creedmore is growing in... while 2015 is the only data we have, I’d be surprised if creedmore were to still have made the current list, especially if the 22-250 is the gatekeeper to the list.
