These last 2 podcasts have been great listens and I've learned some great new stuff. I may no longer be able to resist having a "Rokslide" special...

Agreed, and shared with handful of guys as well that are open-minded.Good podcast. I'll be sending this to several buddies still stuck in the magnum/mono mentality
Great podcast. You guys are really bringing up some interesting topics. I’m trying to sort through all of this and hoping for an opinion.
My parameters are:
- I live in CA and will follow the non lead rules while hunting in state. Out of state hunts I’ll hunt with whatever bullet is best for deer and elk.
- I do not reload, but buy ammo from unknown munitions for hunting and whatever is cheapest off the shelf for practice.
- max 400 yards distance, leaving out to 600 for follow up.
- often hunt solo and want to spot shots
- 7-8lb rifle, or not much more than that
Currently running a braked .30-06 tikka with a drop test approved scope shooting 175 LRX loaded by UM.
Goal based on new information. Shoot as light of recoil as possible to spot shots while still fulfilling the above parameters. Big enough caliber to keep monos effective but as small as possible with little recoil as possible.
I’m leaning toward a 6.5 Creedmoor. Pretty low recoil, lots of off the shelf practice ammo, 140 ELDM and 127 LRX purchased from UM for hunting at given distance. The LRX avg 2000 fps at 500yds out of a Creedmoor.
Thanks for any thoughts
One follow up question
With a braked or suppressed rifle, what is the largest caliber an average shooter can spot impacts at hunting distances with generally appropriate body position.
Thank you sir!Y’all have really knocked it out of the park on the last couple podcast. Please continue to fight against the fuddlore that plagues the hunting and shooting industry.
Thank you for your support!I hate podcasts and have listened to the last 2.
Thank you for your support, it's going to be a blast!Signed up along with my hunting partner. Very excited.
