Think of it this way, if the bullet misses it's target the velocity becomes irrelevant.

My mate shoots a lot of deer with a Maxtoch. His constant retort is why do I need a thermal and I got a 320 1/2 DS red stag with my torch. Hard to beat. LOL.

When you are talking about still effective killing you would need at least 7gr's otherwise it would dribble out of the barrel. My mate has 9 baffles on his DPT can. It is very quiet.

if you have a gunsmith reasonably local, it may be worth asking them if they can do a trigger job to lighten the trigger pull ? don't get me wrong the Timney is good but it could be worth asking at...

Just going to go out on a limb here and suggest just buying a generic middle of the road rifle but good enough that you would be happy to keep it. A Tikka or Howa and just use it to get out and get...

Thanks for the message B0Whntr. Having never hunted before, I won't be specializing in any type of hunting initially. Which is why I chose an all-rounder 308 calibre, and I'm looking for an all...
