.223 for bear, mountain goat, deer, elk, and moose.

From my understanding, which is limited, the 22 creedmoor should do that.



But we need to be honest with our selves on the ranges we can shoot and make ethical hits. I do a lot of shooting out to 600 yards shooting PRS, a few further, and I don't have the skill to shoot an animal that far. A 12-16" steel circle, yep I can do that! A deer or elk, not a chance because I can't keep the group size to half of the vital area.

If you can do the practice and confidently make the shots, then the 22 creed is probably the one you want. Other options could be 223AI or 22arc depending on velocity you get and making sure to keep impact velocities above 1800fps.

I’m just getting into the longer range game so I am still far from being ready to try and shoot animals at 600 yards but would this maybe be a good option for something like a 6 creed for the higher BC bullets. Would the improved BC make much of a difference in hit percentages at say 6-700 yards. I’m buy no means trying to make a argument just asking
