I am looking to add to my gun cabinet with a rifle that will be used for whitetail deer hunting at close range in thick cover. Think maximum of 75 meter shots and often at moving deer. The two I am considering the most are the Tikka Battue Lite and the Browning BLR. Caliber will be likely be 7mm-08 or 308 - both are offered in it.
Any and all opinions welcome. I have primarily been a bowhunter and am slowly transitioning into the rifle hunting world.
BLR in .358 Win! Thank me later.
Or build a M7 .358.
.358 is easy on the meat but knocks them dead with authority.
