[QUOTE="del2les, post: 442062, member: 9299"] There are several good choices already posted, but for my 2 cents I like the 6mm's. A 1/ 9 or 1/8 twist 243, 243AI or the 6mm Rem versions. I enjoy both the 243s and 6MM's, and with the Amax and VLD projectiles, they will reach out and strike very small targets at long range. Plenty of B.C. for sustained downrange energy on muley and smaller variety, so no need for a hard kicking rifle. Choosing your shot placement means more anyway, and a good 2.5-10x, 4-12x, 4.5-14 or 4-16x scope gets the job done with less weight than the 6-20-24x's. I do use a 1/8 twist 22-250 with 75 and 80's, but the 22 caliber may not be legal for deer sized game in all areas. [/QUOTE]
