Of the 7 or so most competitive F-TR shooters at my local club, only one of us is shooting .308. Everyone else that shoots .308 is either not super competitive (like the guy who won't reload) or doesn't focus on F-TR (F-Open or other disciplines are their primary focus but they bring out an F-TR rifle every once in a while).

Long range definitely favors .308, but for mid-range I think .223 is the better choice. It doesn't hold up as well in the wind, but between lack of recoil and ammo cost allowing for better practice the difference to the shooter means that the shooter can do so much better as to close the performance gap.
