[QUOTE="BirdsandBucks, post: 372285, member: 23954"] I apologize because there is a "starting out" forum and this probably should've been posted in there but most to all of my long range shooting will be done on varmints. Im really just trying to figure out a caliber to use. Id like to stick with something in the 6mm area but wouldn't mind a 6.5 7-08 or 300 wsm. My old man already has a Rem 700 in 300 wsm but i dont see him letting me take it for my first lrh rifle. Im not real concerned about pelt damage or anything like that because seems the last time can remember ground hog hides werent paying a whole lot. :D The only real bad thing is that here in Ohio we can only use a shotgun/bow for deer although we do get quite a few damage permits each year for deer. So it would need to be something that could provide suffiecient knockdown power at those ranges. Thanks for everything [/QUOTE]
