[QUOTE="casjoker, post: 5377849, member: 17057"] My preferred deer caliber is 7-08. However, 308 is easier to find and cheaper. I have a Ruger American in 308, Vortex Crossfire with BDC, zeroed at 200. With that reticle, 500 yards shoots are pretty consistent hits on 10" targets. I do like 168 gr more than 150s for longer range but at 300 and under 150 or 168+ the deer don't know the difference. I think I have right at $700 in mine with scope, sling, and taxes. [/QUOTE]
