bobinpa Campfire Regular B Joined: Aug 2010 Posts: 1,555 SW PA	Originally Posted by croz2173 Here are the parameters.... Whitetail/Black Bear/Elk 150 yards and under. Bonus points for cartridge suggestions, as long they aren't traditionally "gay" chamberings. Delivery vehicle will have to be light weight with a barrel no longer than 23". Extra bonus points for anything other than .243 win, .260 rem, 7-08 rem, and .308 win. It's been a while since I've bought a rifle, convince me. Also, I've been led to understand that Creedmoors are not especially masculine, so best to skip them. First choice, 300 WSM 165gr or 180gr Nosler BT There are others but this combo will do just fine.

Though, with the velocities that you would be working with, any decent cup and core should also work well! memtb Last edited by memtb; 12/08/20.
