Cross-training with a .22 LR
Shooters can improve their centerfire skills by cross-training with a .22LR rimfire rifle. In terms of wind drift, shooting a .22LR at 150 yards is equivalent to shooting a .308 at 330 yards. (See Chart)

This table shows the corresponding distances at which a 10 mph full-value crosswind pushes a .22 LR bullet and .308 projectile roughly the same amount. Values are based on 0.130 BC for a 40gr .22 LR bullet, and 0.496 BC for 175gr .308 bullet. | |||||||

Along with the training benefits, rimfires are fun to shoot, with less noise, less recoil, and a much lower cost per shot. If you like competition, many clubs around the country offer rimfire tactical matches, or something similar (multi-distance matches shot from a variety of positions). With paper and/or reactive targets from 25 to 150 yards, tactical rimfire matches are fun and challenging.

To help in training you should really match up drift at the same MOA instead of the the same number of inches. The .308 at 440 yards drifts 14.5″, but this is only 3.3 MOA compared to a drift of 7.1 MOA for the rimfire. The rimfire at 200 is similar to a .308 at 840 yards in terms of MOA drift.
Saw these stocks at SHOT, they are VERY impressive for the price. Very well built and very rigid.
Agree with Rob, inches is not the correct way to compare the ballistics. Comparison should be based on MOA or mil values.
