A few times this rifle season I've spooked deer that have run to about 150 yards and stopped to see if I was following them or not. I don't feel confident taking that shot with my 357 mag carbine. I'm thinking about building a new rifle to reach out to around 250 yards. It would have to shoot a straight-wall cartridge to meet the regulations of the area I hunt, and I'd prefer something I can use with my 36 cal suppressor. I already reload for 357 max, but I'm thinking it may be easiest to put together a 350 legend Ruger and a 6x SWFA scope. I'm leaving toward a compact Ruger American so I'd have something for the kids to get started with. What do you guys think? Any other suggestions?
