[QUOTE="4ked Horn, post: 95075, member: 11"] I would agree with both responses. The .308 should handle a 600 yard deer well. It will also get the job done out at 800. With this in mind keep your first shot inside 600 and then you have a safety zone of 200 yards for a second shot if needed. Of course, as usual keep your shots inside the distance you are comfortable with. Step away from a questionable shot. When getting out around 600 700 800 yards you will want to be using something in the 175 gr and up bullet size. You will want the bullet to go subsonic at a range beyond that which you will be hunting. [/QUOTE]
