I usually use an 18 inch barreled 308 Rem 600 with downloaded 125 grain Sierra pro hunter bullets(2600fps). Put thru the lungs, have never had deer go more than a couple steps. Longest shot out to 250, most are inside 60 yards. With 6.8 have put more than one killing shot into them to see them go 70-100 yards. Sometimes I will grab a 7mm-08 or 30-06 or even a lever gun in 30-30 or 32 special. They all work fine with proper bullet placement…with exception of 6.8 SP.
