6x45

That’s awesome. What scope is on the rifle and did you dial in for her?

It’s a lucid optics L5 4-16x44. We have turret tags on it out to 400. She knows how to dial but I was ranging and dialing on the deer.

Success today with the 6x45! My daughter has always been highly opposed to recoil so we built this up and she shoots it well and shoots quite a bit. Shooting the 85 grain game king at 2640. Right at the very edge of comfort for how far I would want her to shoot. 326 yards. Perfect shot. No exit. Top of heart and one lung mushed.

Well done! Congratulations to the hunter, and her Dad on a great buck.

6x45 is one of my favorite rounds and easy to shoot and load for. My typical loads are anywhere between a 70 gr blitzking at 3300 fps up to a 105 Berger at 2700 fps. It does a lot of things well with little recoil and a lot of fun in general
