Daughters first deer rifle

[drglock]

Hmmm…. I use a 257 ackley and furthest shot has prolly been 250 yards… guess I just suck…

Wish I was a complete badass like dickmountordeath…

No he’s just a douche bag.

Most of the shitbirds I’ve seen hunting with magnums in TX are paying hunters from out of state.

And, most of those shit birds are being told to bring magnums by their guides, who think more boom necessitates less tracking- regardless of shot placement.

Ima
Texas hunters are just shitty hunters and shooters. Dog sized deer from inside 300 yards needing a magnum. L O Fucking L.

Says the star licker telling the OP to use a 223 even tho it's illegal in his state. You really are some special kinda shit pile throwing out advice.
Do all hunters a favor and fuck off...

I don’t know a single hunter who uses a magnum. Prolly the most common I see is 30-06, 243, 308 or 270. Prolly more 270 than anything… excellent deer cartridge.

I know I’m a fudd…

I’ve killed a lot of deer with a win94 30-30 and a savage bolt action 30-30. In the thick woods no need for much else

Probably best to stay away from those outfits. They may tell you a three year old deer is a trophy.

I know a lot of people that like a 25-06 for whitetail.

My uncle shot a 300 weatherby with 125 grain bullets for deer. He was a big man and absorbed recoil. By contrast, I feel like the rotation of the earth downshifts when I touch the trigger on that gun.

Around here, 270 win and 30-06 are pretty ubiquitous. After hunting with a 6.5 Grendel for the better part of a decade, any long action cartridge really seems like overkill.

That said, I drew a hunt and the hunt rules stipulate a minumum of 270 caliber and 150 grain bullets. So, dusting of the long action.

A lot of the guides I know set the 30-06 as a minimum. Not sure why, other then it's what they feel like.

6.5C is a great deer round. My kids moved up to a 6.5C and a 7SAC (necked up C) after they got big enough for bigger guns around 10 years old. Before that they killed their first 25+ with a .223 and Barnes all copper 53 grain bullets. Placement, placement is what I teach. Shoot the shoulder mid to high with any decent bullet in most any centerfire. Tailor the shot range to the catridge. Can't run far without a working front leg and bone chunks take out the heart and/or lungs. We have a liberal season of 6 per person. so our sample size is big. We eat a lot of deer. The 6.5C would serve her well. Good bullets available, mild recoil, kills very well for us far past ranges she will be shooting I expect.
