Other than the 300 SAUM I now own, I'm trending toward lighter calibers and less recoil.

I have a bunch of years under my belt shooting and hunting with a 6.5-06 and I think it's one of the best 6.5's you could build.

I've killed deer down to chucks with it and a variety of bullets. Though I'd run the 120 NBT or 130 ABm pretty much full time if I build another one.

Which I will.
