I purchased a new Sako S20 recently and it is shooting the factory load Sako Blade 120gn @ sub 1/4 MOA. Mainly controlling some pigs at the moment so no deer results yet but 8 shoulder shot boars...

I'm using 120gr BT's, they are very accurate and kill well with plenty of penetration. Have taken goats, chamois, fallow & red deer so far, all under 300m & no probs.

If you get a .243 you might shoot your life and never come across any limitations - after years worth of it killing red deer, and others doing the same with a .223, I am still amazed at people who...

.243 all day, smokes .308 ballistically with way less recoil, still kills everything great, go one of the new generation of 1:8 twist rifles and shoot 105-108gr bullets, great stuff Unless you...

Be silly to buy anything other than a 6.5CM in a factory rifle for general purpose hunting these days 140-147gr 6.5mm bullets of the right construction at 2600-2700 fps kill things extremely well...

my thoughts are that under 300m it literally doesn't matter. past 300m I prefer 6.5 as I like the ballistics more, but if I spent time with .308 I'm sure I'd get used to it and be fine. I also have...

Interestingly theres little to nothing in it. I think alot of people that hate on the creedmoor dont actually have any understanding of what it is or what its capable of. 6.5 Creedmoor with...

well if you compare apples with apples and feed both FACTORY eldx it would really be a moot point... much of a muchness up close on bigger stuff I would back .270 with heavier factory rounds,even...

I reckon the 6.5 caliber is the ideal choice for NZ hunting conditions with the possible exception of Wapiti in Fiordland or longer rage shooting in the Southern alps. I shot the 6.5x55 for many...

Ha. You reckon a couple of inches would make a difference? More deer have been shot with full length SMLE barrels than anything else :) You just gotta be careful where you wave the thing. Just like...
