[QUOTE=".30US, post: 1286336, member: 19108"] I know it goes against everything this forum stands for with high-BC bullets and long range capability, but if your range is 100 yards, why not the .358 Winchester using the .308 Lapua brass you would like? The .308 isn't horrible in that short of a barrel, but I would think the larger bore of the .358 might be a little more efficient with your specifications. Depending where you are hunting, your deer may be bigger than my home State's East Texas poodle-sized whitetails. I see some of the pros have already weighed in, so I'm just throwing the unique suggestion out from an amateur, but I don't think you could go wrong with it. Look forward to seeing what you end up with. You can't go wrong with the 7mm-08 previously suggested, either. [/QUOTE]
