[QUOTE="Ace Quackhunter, post: 2029547, member: 112792"] When I was living in Louisiana I met a pistol shooter who wanted to try long range rifle. We settled 6 BR for him and shot many matches together out to 600 yards. Since that was his only rifle he used it when we would hunt together for Deer. The 95 grain Ballistic Tip worked well on deer, and none of the shots were over 100 yards. I have used the same bullet in my 243 to take mule deer out past 200 yards and none traveled more than 30 yards after being hit. I have considered a 6.5 BR Built for some time now to make a lite weight pack rifle as the 264 Mag. is getting heavy after a day trekking the mountains. Let's know how your built turns out, I am always interested in what other have come up with you might have a great combo Deer / Hog rifle. Ace [/QUOTE]
