The trend seems to be in the other direction, i.e. 6.5 and 6mm. With those, lower weight, high B.C. bullets seem to work very well. Very accurate, good LR performance, low recoil.

brinky,

If he just wants to shoot targets, why not a .223? Low recoil, and good ammo selection. A heavy .223 is a hoot.
