The 6.8 is an excellent performer on deer size game. Lots of hunting bullets in the appropriate weight for the cartridge too.
It's a perfect round for recoil sensitive hunters and a great choice for youth hunters. It needs to be in a bolt gun...and someday it will happen again.
Im not a Savage fan, but the Lady Hunter is a perfect platform for the cartridge -- shorter LOP and a raised cheek piece to help get shooters properly behind the scope.
