RegularJoe trapper R Joined: May 2022 Pennsylvania	Originally Posted by danny clifton I am old school. 22-250 for coyotes, 270 for deer, 300 wm for elk. They work so no need to replace them. Any of the three would work for any of the three. The job I bought each for they excel at. Have not seen anything yet that would be a big improvement. Some minor ones here and there. Also some less thans. Gun writers gotta eat and gun companies gotta sell. Get close shoot careful is what grampa always said. Still good advice. Exactly how I feel about the 6.5, I have calibers that work and I have no use for one, but some guys need a reason to buy another rifle I guess. The other thing is too many guys figure they are now snipers, simply because they bought one, and they shoot all their deer under 150 yards anyway. Best marketing campaign since rage broadheads came out. Last edited by RegularJoe; 02/21/25 09:43 PM.

America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.
