[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 530017, member: 30902"] Good caliber but the .260 will do everything you want to do and do it much cheaper ammo wise; at least for deer hunting out to 600yds, and I've seen elk taken with both it and the 6.5x47 Lapua (another great 6.5 round for short actions) out to the same distance and beyond. If you can put it in the right place any of the 6.5/.260's will do the trick. That didn't used to be a real consideration but it certainly is today. For solid made budget rifles the Howa's are hard to beat. [/QUOTE]
