[QUOTE="HandgunHTR, post: 2868436, member: 126524"] For smaller, thin-skinned game, using today's bullets, the .22 Creed is a really good option. 77-88 grain bullets in a fast twist .22 caliber are flat-out killers. The 6CM is also a very good option. If you want to go heavier, then my personal favorite is 7-08AI. I built one on a Tikka action with a Bartlein barrel. 20", Rem Varmint profile, and threaded for a suppressor. I am getting 2800 fps with a 162 grain ELD-X and Varget, and up to 2875 with a 150 grain Nosler ABLR with both Staball 6.5 and H4350. [/QUOTE]
