[QUOTE="ronstone09, post: 1706395, member: 22856"] I've been a mule deer hunter for over 50 years and have killed hundreds of mulies ! My favorite is a 7mm RM with 140 gr accubonds going around 3000 fps ! So let's see what's comparable with less recoil ! A 6.5x284 was my 1st thought with 140 gr. Bullets that would work find ! Your 6.5 or a creedmoor would work ! You could look at a 270 with 130 gr. Bullets or even some 6 MMS such as the 243 ! These all would work with the 243 being the lightest and most pleasant to shoot ! [/QUOTE]
