[QUOTE="5.56×250, post: 1647759, member: 110162"] I'm 54, but have 3 bad discs in my neck , on top of a wad of arthritis at the base of my skull. I built a 6.5 creedmoor with a break to allow me to continue shooting without regret. I juggled the idea of the 6 creed, but the 6.5 won out for bullet selection and the popularity means ammo is very easy to come by about any place you can pull trigger. I rebarreled my rem 700 308 to accomplish my goal. The 308 would put me in traction after a sit down on the bench for a few shots. The 6.5 creed hasent cause any issue as of yet. Another great option for a 300 yd deer rig would be a new upper for the 300 BO you already have in 6.5 grendel. I have one of those and it's an easy shooter on my neck as well. I built the creedmoor for 300+ yard deer medicine, but the little grendel is my woods rifle . Hope this helps your dad. It's not any fun having neck issues. [/QUOTE]
