I've used 6mm Rem., 25-06 Rem., 270 Win., 7mm Rem Mag., 30-06 Sprg., and 338 Win Mag. on Mule Deer! All worked fine but my favorite is the 7mm Rem Mag. with 160 gr. Accubond bullets for a combination of range and killing power here's one I shot at 349 yds. with this setup!I am a South Texas deer hunter and own many caliber of deer rifles, but I am going on a public draw deer hunt in Colorado and need to know what is a good all round caliber for Mule deer. I use a 300 RUM in Texas due to long Sendaro shooting out to about 600 yrds, but want some input for Mule deer in Colorado. I am under the understanding that altitude can effect preformance.
