[QUOTE="wklohr, post: 674871, member: 51250"] Hey all! New guy here. First post. I joined because I am a hunter at heart, but my experience is back east (WVa) with deer hunting <150 yards. But there is a club in town with a 300 yard range, and I want to start using it with the hopes of elk in the future if I can master the skills necessary. Plus, there are always more guns to play with. So... Always have had eyes on a 308 Win and a shop nearby has a Rem 700 5R (stainless) on the rack in that caliber. From what I read, its quite a rifle. But when I searched this forum group for some comments, I didnt find any posts. While I understood this is not a typical field rifle, I would have thought that it was used to reach out and touch a few deer, elk, mullie, goat. ? Am I barking up the wrong tree with this choice? And! Glad to be part of the forum. There is powerful mojo in this group from what I can read so far. Whew. wkl [/QUOTE]
