      I'm late, why don't you hunt them? Do they not taste good?

        I like muleys. Their behavior is a lot more interesting than whitetails and the males do that silly Pepe Le Pew hop instead of running.

    I used .270 win for years, but switched to .308.
    I also bought a 300blk upper for brush hunting but haven't taken it out yet.

      I know plinking ammo for 308 is cheaper, how does good hunting ammo compare to 270 cost wise?

        Quality ammo is around the same price, but there's more options in .308, and .308 might be like, a buck cheaper per box of good ammo.
        But yes cheap ammo is like 1/3rd the price of the cheapest .270win I've found.

    Leave it to outdoor life to take a pic of .308 next to 7mm RM and use it for a .308 vs 300 wm article.
    And this dumb frick OP chooses that stock image? Take a pic of your ammo if you really are a has gun.

          I shoot the cheaper ammo more but only the expensive hunting rounds enough to sight it in. So yes, I get enough practice and can shoot it just fine.

    .308, because at hunting distances it is more than enough for durr, elk, and black bear, and I can get a lot of trigger time in because cheap ammo and longer barrel life.

    300 blk in am AR, I'm in thick woods a lot, used to Cary a marlin 336 in .30-30, but the 300blk AR is shorter, lighter, and I can use a proper sling on it.

      I would take the 300 blk over the 30-30 if you are using the right rounds

    308 because I'm a Ruger memelord and M80 ball used to be 45cpr. I hunt deer but suck at it. First year only saw the wrong species. Second year forgot to apply for the draw. Third year applied but didn't get drawn. Scout is sad...

    I want to design a caliber, what has the most punch and accuracy at 75 yards with minimal recoil with a noise suppressor at an automatic fire rate of 100 rounds per minute?

      Should design a specialized gun that is stock with suppressor to go with the round. Backpack belt fed automatic SMG?

    • 1 year ago

      Something to go with a 1 mile sniper, rocket launcher and mortar team.

      I'm thinking .45 but maybe there's something more ideal for tripoding a smg as a machine gun position with the suppressor.

      5.56 necked down to .17 cal and cut back to take super heavy for cal bullets at subsonic velocities.

      Define punch…
      Auto fire rate of 100 rounds a minute is not automatic, you can do that with a semi auto.

    I use 6.5 Creedmoor for hogs and whitetails in Texas. Sometimes I’ll use a .308 but 6.5 is a comfy round.

    7x65r because it has a very flat trajectory and my favorite break action is chambered in it.

    That's a difficult question. I target a wide variety of species, from small deer (fallow, hog, etc.) all the way up to large dangerous game (water buffalo, cape buffalo, etc.) So it's very hard to pick a one size fits all cartridge. If I were to select a cartridge based on what I use the most often, it would be 30-06. However, if I were to make my choice based on the most versatile cartridge I use, it would be .375 H&H. A .375 H&H will reliably kill anything on the planet, from pigs to elephant.

        I didn't say I would use it for deer. Just that it's the most versatile round that I use.

    While .22 and 12 gauge are the og best hunting combo, the .444 is a great brush gun

      I like the .444 but the 45-70 has better bullet options and cheaper. I could be wrong though.

      Seconded. Got into reloading and 7mm RM can be loaded down for whitetail or boar or loaded up to git-sum levels for bigger game or long range shooting.

    .17hmr
    I use is on tiny-small to biggest-small game. I just love how well .17hmr performs. It's so great.
    .270 winchester for everything else, which for animal killing is way better than .308 winchester.

    45-70 because it can kill anything on the planet with different loadings and I can't shoot further than 50m in these dense-ass woods anyway.
