223, can't grill it until you kill it.

Deer hunting - 30-30. Fun to shoot - 223 or .17 HMR.

Have always shot the 30-06, considering trying out the 6.5creedmoor I bought 3 years ago. Mounted a scope on it and it has sat in the safe ever since.

Feel like all but 1-2 ppl actually got the joke. I kinda like 300blk - Im just gonna assume its a photo that got resized without aspect ratio maintained.

22-250, its the best of both worlds

From those choices 6mm

Re: What caliber is your go too - 11/01/22 11:57 PM
In that case...it's .308...by far. Never owned one, but I'm definitely thinking about it now.

Should have embedded it instead of attaching it. I figure instead of having a go to, I would dabble a little with .223, .308, 30-06, 300BO and a 6mm. Hell, I might even give the 7.62 x 54r a try. You never know, might perform better than it looks on paper!

Re: What caliber is your go too - 11/02/22 12:33 AM
7.62x54R, warm in the winter, shade in the summer!

Re: What caliber is your go too - 11/02/22 12:34 AM
308 however I should have a 30.06 for back up

30-06 was always my go to for deer but now I lean more to the .308.

Re: What caliber is your go too - 11/02/22 02:42 AM
I can handle the recoil… give me the 30-06

Re: What caliber is your go too - 11/02/22 03:01 AM
I like the 223. It knows it's place. I would be afraid the 7.62x54R would hurt me.

Re: What caliber is your go too - 11/02/22 03:27 AM
Out of that list, 308...........

Re: What caliber is your go too - 11/02/22 11:54 AM
308 or .223….
Used to be the 6mm but I ain’t got time for that drama
I think the BO is a midget

Yup. Built for speed.
.308 is a close second, built for comfort.

Re: What caliber is your go too - 11/02/22 01:37 PM
I always take 2 guns when I head out of town on a hunt out of state.
The 308 would be my first choice, but if I knocked the scope off or the barrel got to hot I`d probably switch over to the 30-06. I need a big bore rifle for my high velocity penetrating round.

Re: What caliber is your go too - 11/02/22 01:44 PM
If I'm going on the picture alone that the OP provided (which 90% of you either didn't see or understand) it's going to be 300 BO.
Posted By: hook_n_line
Re: What caliber is your go too - 11/02/22 02:05 PM
That 300 bo is the truck gun model. 30-06 is for the deer blind. 308 is for the camp house window,
