Planning 0-500 yard hunting platform - 07/14/17 06:11 PM
I am posting because I would like to check my own opinion/selections with some of those that have in field knowledge of what I only really have head knowledge of.
This is going to be a beat em'up hunting rifle that will be for inside of 500 yards primarily. I hunt Whitetail and Hog 95% of the time that I hunt big game.
I know this platform capable of 1000 yards for paper but on a regular basis, I am not going to be doing that at this point in time. This is going to be a long process, it won't be until next summer that I buy (gotta save up some scratch in my rat hole).
Ruger American Rifle in 308 Win (Currently own)
Wish List:
Swfa SS 6x42
Magpul Hunter American stock (releasing later this year)
Timney trigger (3 lbs just for safety reasons)
