[QUOTE="jimbires, post: 1484947, member: 11011"] I'll tell you the rest of my story . I started my son out with a 243 . he did well with it . he got a deer just about every year . most involved some tracking , some way more than others . I kept switching bullets trying to get something better . I ended up trying nosler 100 gr partitions . that sure was the answer for us . I don't think a deer ever got out of sight shooting that bullet . during all of this I kind of had my mind made up I should have bought a bigger caliber for him , like a 7mm-08 . I have a 7mm-08 and it works well with just regular cup and core bullets for whitetails . now I have a 5 year old grandson . about 2 years ago I ran into a killer deal on a 260 rem , I just couldn't pass it up . trued up 700 action , shilen barrel , B&C aluminum bedding block stock that I have bedded with devcon , priced not much more than a new factory rifle . I thought this would make Carter a nice deer hunting rifle . so when he gets a little older , I'll find out how it does . Buddy I hope this 6.5 works out well for you . [/QUOTE]
