[QUOTE="xsn10s, post: 1499105, member: 95344"] Any of those rounds you mentioned can do your job out to 300 yards pretty easy. But let me make one suggestion for you to kick around. If coyotes or smaller varmints are going to be the focus then look towards 223, 22-250, or maybe even the 6mm's. My 22-250 was my go to rifle for chucks and yotes. If mainly yotes and hides aren't a concern then 243, 6mm CM or 6.5 CM is fine. If deer are more the focus then I'd go with the 6.5 CM or 308 Win. Personally I'd lean towards the 308 win especially with your scope and range limits. Great magnification choice for hunting btw. But if you're used to the 6.5 CM and have been competing with it then that would be the logical choice for you. Two rifles one for varmints and one for big game hunting IMO is ideal. [/QUOTE]
