Ok guys I am looking to the campfire for guidance on my next build. I know these threads are always fun!
So here is the deal, my next build is going to one of these three chamberings 223, 223 A.I. or 6x45
The purpose of this rifle is to shoot a lot! I have a ton of 223 brass, 223 bullets and 6mm bullets.
The main purpose of this rifle is in order of most use:
#1, to shoot long range (1000yds) steel and rocks etc...
#2. Gophers/ prairie dogs
#3 Coyotes/ wolves in the forest , short to medium range
#4 Doe whitetail, mule deer, short to medium range
I have no gaps in my battery. I have fast twist large .22 Cf. Fast twist large 6mm's for open country long range.
This is going to be a general purpose rifle. The stock is already ordered, a McMillan
The barrel is going to be a sporter profile. The action a Rem 700
The twist will be 1/8
The scope a 3-9, with a ballistic reticle and turrets. With a ton of elevation travel.
Should spec out at 7.5 to 8lbs
So what are the pro's and con's of the three chambering choices?
Thanks in advance
