Re: Help me select a 308 win bullet for long shots
Very interesting thoughts here on some longer range deer options.
In my TN area I was looking at <span style="font-style: italic">maybe</span> 150 yards for deer, so model 70 6.5x55, 129g Interlocks, & a Swaro 1.5-6x42mm.
I have a chance to hunt an area where 500 yard cornfield shot is very likely, so I was researching something bigger like 7WSM.
But I would really prefer to stay with a familar caliber & rifle. My FN SPR 308 & Nightforce is looking like a good option. Or even my swede with a little more glass & a hunting VLD might work very well.
Thanks,
Tim
