[QUOTE="jrock, post: 1706050, member: 78569"] I have a friend who has converted his whole family to the 6.5 Grendel in AR platforms for hunting deer up to elk. Shots are always within a few hundred yards and they get the job done according to him. However, I have exactly what you need. I have an ultralight I built in 6mm Dasher for deer hunting. The rifle itself weights 5.5 lbs and is perfect for a youth to carry around all day, easy to handle and almost no recoil. It pushes the 105+ grain 6mm projectiles up to 3000 fps. That has been a killer combo on deer of all sizes. You can always go with a premium bullet if you want more penetration through shoulders. I don't shoot shoulders as I want to save as much meat as possible especially on deer. [/QUOTE]
