Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Youth Rifle 6.5 creedmoor vs 7mm-08

Me too on the 7mm-08. I started my son, then 9, with a stainless T3. I loaded down for him then adopted the rifle when he wanted a .30-06. I load max charges with 140 Partitions and Accubonds.

All of the following were one shot kills:

Three of the five bucks hanging died from the -08. Closest shot was 175, farthest was 541 yards.




My dad's 5x5, 225 yards.



Spike bull, 346 yards.




Speed goat, 313 yards




There are several more but you get the idea.
