[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 1916962, member: 10291"] While there are quite a few calibers/cartridges that are very effective for deer, my personal favorite for the last dozen years or so is my 6.5x284 running 140 class bullets at 3000FPS. It has proven to be deadly from 500-1000 yards on a couple of dozen whitetails and mule deer, including the big Alberta fellas. When using a 6.5(or any other caliber) past 700 yards, a high BC bullet that retains velocity, and has good expansion at your max range is critical. [/QUOTE]
