wallyworld has the .30-06 of the ATR for 250+tax, but are sold out and cannot order the .308, (warehouse out of stock.) otherwise .308 at walmart would be 280
my local gun shop can get me the .308 for 300+tax.
Im mainly going to be doing target shooting, and i dont know what caliber i should get.
what's up man ,well i think that the mossberg is a ok rifle 4 the price i had aone in 30-06 and it shot ok,but if u would spend about 50-80 more bucks
u could get a stevens mod. 200 in a short or long action with alot of cal. 2 choose from.i think the stevens mod. 200 is a better choice for the money.
I haven't shot an ATR but search on here i haven't heard anything good about them....go with the stevens 200. they can be had for right around the 300 dollars the atr is

I have an ATR in .308 and I love it. It shoots great, the wood stock looks good and it was $315. Now you can't say you haven't heard anything good about the ATR....LOL
kchau,
I wouldn't think you would need a .308 or an 30-06 if you're mainly target practicing. A 7mm-08 is a nice accurate caliber that will not beat your arm up and could still be used on deer. If you are not going to hunt with it a gold old .22 is the best thing going to plink targets and the ammo is super cheap. I also would look hard at the Marlin rifles. You can get them with a nice camo stock and an adjustable trigger for around $300. I agree with you the Stevens is an eyesore. I mean it is a nice shooting gun by most accounts. But, why on earth did they have to give it that grey stock??

is the .308 worth 50 more over the .30-06?
You might be comparing apples and oranges. Make sure both guns have the new lightning bolt trigger(?). The local Wm had a ATR cheap, $267 but it doesn't have the adjustable trigger. That may be why you see a price difference between the .308 Win and 30-06.
