6MM Remington, a great all round varmint and deer size caliber. I've enyoyed Rugers in 6mm for last 30 yrs. They have performed very well on whitetails, mulies, and antelope with 90 gr. speers.
It has also been very effectives on coyotes with 87 gr Hornadays. Everyone should have at least one of them. Best wishes--tr Happy 4th

Whereas I have both the .243Win. and the 6mm Rem. as well, and am very satisfied with both I'd prefer a .25-06 for larger deer.
It packs more of a wallop at all ranges. Just one mans opinion. Best wishes. Cal - Montreal |

I have both of these calibers and like them both. One problem common to both is if you're hunting woodchuck in an area that has livestock. They are both quite loud and probably will not endear you to friend farmer. Something smaller and not quite so loud would probably be a better choice for smaller game. Just one mans opinion. Best wishes.

Hi Cal,
Cheers but we have no Woodchucks so that's not a problem. Also should I wish to quieten it down here in the UK one can always get permission for a Sound moderator ( silencer) which eliminates the muzzle blast although you will still have the supersonic crack from the bullet unless you drop the velocity down to under 1100fps Have been considering getting a moderator but just yet I am unable to decide which rifle to screw cut to fit one.
