I would run larger bullet, lil longer barrel, and lighter scope if it was me. If you're going to reload get 280AI. I have a 7RM and prefer the added authority over 6.5PRC especially for elk. 20" barrel will cut your range down some as well. To each his own.
Looking for a vx3 with CDS dial with 1" tube and 40mm objective. Prefer 4.5-14 but would consider 3.5-10
I have a vx3 3.5-10x50 with wind plex I could trade as well as an old vx2 3-9. Scope will go on light weight rifle and I'd like to keep low rings which is why I want a 40mm. I love in...
Looking for a lightweight 308 bolt rifle with a threaded barrel. Barrel at least 22" long and preferably includes a muzzle brake. Considering Weatherby, Christensen, Browning, and maybe some others. 6.5# or less.
I see this but you can still find huntable areas. I saw deer every day last year and elk 3 days also including 2 shootable 4/5pt bulls and a 6x6 herd bull. Saw people every day too unfortunately.
