[QUOTE="falconew, post: 1180406, member: 71374"] thinking of going to Amarillo,Tx this fall for a deer and mule deer hunt. i currently own a savage model 10 in 308 with a bull barrel and a nikon scope. i know that nikon is not capable of long range and that bull barrel is heavy to carry around. I have been thinking of a bigger caliber for 1000 yard plinking. i was looking at the savage 10 Ba but thinking i will need a lighter weight gun for backpacking up there. so what is a good light weight gun and a good reach out and kill bullet for them deer and mules? for the scope i was looking at the Vortex Viper PST 6x24x50. I would also like some tips for doing this hunt as well since i never have been out there before. I am going with a good friend that lives out there. [/QUOTE]
