As long as I can remember I was always a fan of sub 30 caliber rounds. It started with the .243 over 50 years ago, then the 270 win, followed by the 7mm-08 and lastly the 6.5CM. All have worked exceedingly well for me over all these years. Yes I did take some critters with the .308, 30-06 and 300WM.
But I got to watching a video on the best cartridge for long range and the gentleman from, I believe, Rock Ridge Precision said that he considers the two best cartridges are the 28 Nosler and the 300RUM. I'm really considering the 28 Nosler because I would believe the 300RUM in a long range rifle would be a bit much more than needed in the recoil dept. Or should I just stick with my 6.5CM. I don't really plan on doing any LR hunting except for antelope and whitetails. More so just shooting steel out to distant targets.
