".308 beats .223 any day, way out to 300-400 meters.
.223 might knock yer towel off.
But .308 will give ya a splitting headache."

I agree, .308 beats the .223 anyday.
But here's where I differ, they are both capable of reaching out to 1000 yards. It's a lot easier for the M-14/M1A than an M-16/AR-15, but both can hold sub-MOA groups with open sights at 1000.
I've fired tens of thousands of rounds from the M-14 and about 5000 rounds from an AR-15. Hands down, the M-14 is a far superior weapon at long range.
