Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Ask The Gunwriters A Close-in Deer Rifle

You couldn't don’t do much better than that, unlikely to match it even.

I bought my first 600 in 308 sometime in the 60’s. Certainly not in the running for a beauty pageant. That was what I carried on my first elk hunt. The 600 308’s I’ve owned were, to me, perfect close in deer rifles. I never had more than a 4x on any of them - never a variable. The one I gave now is wearing a M8-4x, I believe.
