Your Next Rifle Will Be In Which Cartridge

[buckfvr]

Be a 6.5 Creedmoor either self build on a Savage stainless varmint short action or the Savage BA 10.

 

[basinman]

Already have a 300 WSM and a 6.5 Creedmoor so my next purchase will be a new upper for my AR in 6.5 Grendel.

 

[Dgd6mm]

6.5 of some sort

 

[RH300UM]

375 is next up to be completed

Ever notice no matter how simple the question is someone is going elsewhere. lol
300 Win for me

 

[JohnnieB]

7 Sherman Short for me.

I have shot plenty of 30 cals...plenty of 284s...and a few 264...
I seem to not have the bigger is better craze....it doesn't justify the end result....more bullet diameter, more powder usage, more recoil...just don't need it to kill an animal, and paper still only shows holes......284 was/is a nice cartridge but still tears critters up....
260 was right on the verge of being too small a package....
But like GoldieLocks and the three bears......I think that the 6.5/.284 Norma is the best to sleep with.....just about any age and or sized person can tolerate the recoil in a hunting rifle package.....

300WM
This caliber has been my go to firearm.
However, with 60+ yrs of experience my preference is the 7-08Rem. This caliber can be loaded light for varmints and increased bullet weight for elk.
It's bullet design is right in their with the new 6.5CM and the 6.5PRC. The 6.5x284Norma has more horsepower. But potential barrel life is greatly reduced.
Note:
7-08 confirmed Kills 20yds to 600yds on deer and elk
300WM 45yds to 870yds bear, deer and elk

6.5 saum or PRC.

All the parts are ready to be sent off to the smith for a 6mm creedmoor build. Kelbly atlas tac, bartlein 1:7.5 27" medium palma, trigger tech diamond trigger, badger bottom metal, manners stock. My area has caliber restrictions so was looking for something more to tinker with. Fast, flat, little recoil, on the cheaper side to shoot, factory ammo option if ever needed. 6mm creed seemed like the way to go.

Long range moose and bear rifle will be next for sure. 300. Win mag I figure

 

[TXAoudadKlr]

Not for LR but I continue to ponder a 458 Saum. Probably make for a fun hog stomper

 

[Beardeddeer91]

300 WM just because of component and factory ammo accessibility and versatility of the bullets available. Basically, out of the list you can do it all without much effort.

 

[squirrelsniper]

I want another 300 Win for hunting, so it comes first. Then maybe a 338 Lapua for fun.

35 Newton... either a 30 Nosler necked up or a 375 Ruger necked down. I saw some scuttlebutt somewhere about Nosler getting a 35 Nosler SAAMIed...
