    Learned a valuable lesson

    Welcome back. Sorry you picked this place for camaraderie. You’re a saint for sighting in other peoples’ rifles. I do it sometimes at deer camp and some of the setups are really beyond belief. They all weigh 6 lbs with a composite stock, have an NC Star scope, an 8 lb trigger, and 180g...

    Best hunting caliber for barrel length 16.5-20"

    Nobody is going to Pat your back and say you’ve got the most luxurious rifle, but all the savages I’ve owned in the last 10 years would outshoot me. If you can find one of these it might be worth it. https://www.budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/719009193/savage+308+16+hvy+thr+blk

    Short light suppressed whitetail hunting rifle

    This is the direction I went but with 123 sst as stated above. I was willing to sacrifice greater energy on target to get velocity. Main targets are inside 300 or 400 yards. I’m looking for a pass through vital shot and want a bullet that holds up through a rib but doesn’t need to break through...

    Best hunting caliber for barrel length 16.5-20"

    I always heard it was in case some jerk had a measuring technique that made your 16” short by 1/8” and suddenly you’re getting accused of possessing an unregistered SBR. Or maybe it’s that we’ve all dreamed of having an extra half inch and this is how we fulfill that dream.

    Best hunting caliber for barrel length 16.5-20"

    Thousand opinions out there. I’ve got an 18” 6.5 CM with a TBAC ultra 9 that I like. You can load 140 class ammo to 2550-2650 fps pretty easily and that should be deadly to 500 without issue. I also loaded some 123s for my son to shoot to 200 yards max. .308 should also do well in 150-165...

    2022 Hunting kill thread

    Little guy smacked his first deer at 0720 today in youth season. Great way to start a hunting career. He was more confident than I was. Shot was a little back, but clipped the liver. Deer was down 70 yards from the shot.

    2022 Hunting kill thread

    Couple of arkansas does with an R26 crossbow. Shot one at 25 yards, she went down after running 20 yards. 90 seconds later I saw another. Walked across the open spot in the woods and almost exactly to the same spot as the first. Put her down, too.

    6.5 and 308 bullet selection

    I like the simple Sierra 165 game king for .308. Love the Hornady sst line in 6.5- tough bullets. I went down to 123s for my son for his first year. Made for the 6.5 Grendel, but seem to shoot fine out of our 18” Creedmoor.

    Ultra 7. Super impressed

    It’s tempting for sure. I’ll be the first to tell you’ve I’ve run a couple without ear pro. But I def had that ringing afterwards and was mad at myself.

    Ultra 7. Super impressed

    223 is a great round suppressed. 6.5 will be as well. Ultra 7 is solid. Beware that you didn’t hear the “boom” but you certainly heard the supersonic crack. For that reason you still want ear pro.
