The effective range of a .308 bullet depends on the specific load, rifle, and shooter skill, but generally ranges from 800 to 1000 yards for accurate shooting on a human-sized target. Beyond this distance, the bullet's energy and accuracy decrease significantly.
Compared to the 223 Remington, the case volume of the 308 Winchester is increased by approximately 80%. The 308 Win now fires a larger bullet and maintains long-range speed, but at the expense of recoil.

The maximum RANGE- how far a rifle can fire a .243 cartridge- is about 4.5 miles. However, the EFFECTIVE RANGE- distance one can reliably hit a target, is much less. It will vary according to the rifle, however, the .243 is based on the .308 Winchester cartridge, a very accurate round. In a properly sighted rifle, under the right conditions, it may have an effective range of 500-600 meters, or more. An ethical hunter will typically not attempt shots at that range to avoid wounding a game animal.
The US Army defines the maximum effective range of a .308 as 800 meters. The US Marine Corps defines the effective range as 1000 meters. There will be variances due to things like bullet weight, barrel length, etc. Generally speaking, bullets are no longer effective once they become subsonic, which happens at around 1000 meters with a .308.
