[QUOTE="Bigeclipse, post: 2669141, member: 52437"] All I'm looking for help in choosing the caliber for a sig cross I will buy. It comes in a 308 16in barrel or 6.5creed 18in barrel. This will strictly be for my woods walking deer gun so most shots will likely be inside 200 yards. There is one field which does have 400 yard shots but if I planned to sit that field I'd likely bring one of my other rifles but just in case I happen to walk to that field with this rifle, I still want to know I could shoot 400 and take a deer. I have other rifles for longer range hunting and i routinely shoot out to 600 yards with those. The reason I'm really interested in the sig cross is how handy it is and how it is more modern in setup. Short barrel is nice for maneuvering thick woods (I will not be able to suppress it due to state law). I also LOVE how quickly you can adjust the stock. This means my wife could also use it if she wanted to and I can also adjust length of pull to how thick my garments are. I do re-load but I'm not currently set up to load for either cartridge. I do plan on loading for it though. It really comes down to the cartridge and performance in these shorter barrels. Thoughts Thanks! [/QUOTE]
