    7mm-08 the forgotten 6.5 Creed Killer?

    Speaking of slaying elk w/ the 7mm08... Here is one my son smacked with his at just over 400yds. We used a 140 accubond.

    Ultimate light weight very accurate coyote rifle

    I have a ruger american in 6.5 Grendel that is pretty **** fun to shoot, especially w/ a.suppressor. Bought it used for like $300 and with just a little load work... coyote slayer! 😜. Pretty solid 5 round group.

    Sod Poodle caliber and cartridge

    I would consider the 6.5 Grendel. That would get you out to the ranges your talking about pretty easily. Velocity is reasonable so wouldn't be a barrel burner compared to some of these other calibers. Low recoil, can spot your own shots. I will say those PD/bunny kills with the 95gr VMax are...

    Do all rifle???

    So, while I was sitting in church I went through all these pages and tallied up the votes for you all.

    308 or 7mm-08 for mule deer?

    Lol, that is true. Good thing they don't know that yet! 😆

    308 or 7mm-08 for mule deer?

    Funny that this thread popped up because I literally just got back to the house from banging steel with my boys (11 & 14). They bet me drinks at the gas station that I couldn't hit the 8" steel on the first shot at about 450yds w/ the 7-08. Bang - Ding - thanks for coming out 😂🤣 That's as good...

    I think I just built my favorite hunting rifle

    I have an older remington 700, manufactured mid 90s I believe. Anyway, I put a bell and carlson stock and timiney trigger in it. I use it for elk and deer. This is my son in the front shooting it off the flatbed. What do you shoot?

    I think I just built my favorite hunting rifle

    OP, I think I must have the same look on my face as my wife does when I tell her, "I think I have all the guns I need." 😂🤣🤣 Awesome looking rifle! Been a big fan of my 280 Rem for a long time and have been curious about how that 6.5-06 would perform. Keep us updated.

    .308 Best Rounds

    For factory ammo I'll put a vote in for the Hornady Superformance w/ 165 SSTs in .308. No scientific data here, LOL! Just my experience using them on mule deer. They've been very accurate out of my sons Savage 110. The last muley he killed was just over 300 yards. Ran down hill about 30-40...

    Winchester Model 70 .280 Remington upgrade to AI

    If you're not already set up to reload the 280 Rem I'd say jump on a rebarrel job. Will the difference be THAT much? Probably not, but those minute advantages are what we are all about right?😁🤣 I have a 280 Rem that I have really loved. The only reason I haven't went to the AI is cuz I'm...

    I bought the kit @ www.460rowland.com. I want say it was like $300-350. That included the barrel, guide rod & spring and muzzle device. It was really simple. Uses same mags. Cool thing is that I can still shoot 45 ACP out of it. There are several different firearms that you can convert...

    Another which cartridges thread

    If you are just banging steel or hunting coyotes put down another vote for 6.5 Grendel. I picked up a little ruger american for my son and worked up a load with 123 SSTs. That thing is ridiculously accurate, especially for a $400 rifle, LOL. Almost 0 recoil. Really fun suppressed as well...

    Side Arm for Grizzly Country

    I'm not sure if the 460 Rowland has been mentioned in this thread but I would throw that one in the mix as a solid choice. More power than a 10mm and more ammo capacity than a revolver. I have a Glock 21 that I converted to the 460 Rowland about 5-6 years ago. I'm primarily an archery hunter...
