Are not. You take that back. Meanie!Settle nothing, gun owners are very opinionated.
mine is actually not a proof tundra but its better because I have a manners Eh1a stock in 300wm with a clone in 6.5 creed& 6.5 Prc.Calling @groundscrapers, I'm sure he can catch you up.
the cz 600 is probably not the most popular right now but the bergaras and tikka's' are very highly recommended. Honestly we were putting down muleys at 600 in wyoming with 6.5 creed and that was more than enough.FYI ... the CZ will do 1/2 - 1/4" all day.
I am waiting for someone to manufacture a chassis for it, that rifle has a lot of potential.
I found a CZ video on YouTube that makes it sound like the 600 Alpha can fit in the "600 range" stock.
But, of course CZ doesn't seem to sell the 600 range stock. I don't get it, release a new rifle, don't make the action compatible with any existing chassis and choose to not support it. WTF.
CZ is slowly going to sh*t on rifles. If the 600 is not successful they are probably done, maybe will remain in play with the 457 .22 market.

not pictured is the CNVD-LR and Raptar that are destined for it.That photo is my definition of wealthy.
That’s all I can say right now.
I have a '94 AE in .307 Winchester. It's identical to .308 except for the rim to help with lever action extraction. In a pinch this rifle can shoot .308 and some have done that. I use .308 load data for it.This. Vintage model '94 all the way. I have two. Took one elk hunting in January too. Didn't see anything
Lol. Talk about dark ages. Ive also hunted deer with a Smith 625, 45 Long Colt. 255 gr. XTP and 24 gr. Of H110.C'mon, haven't you heard, unless you're using something with a laser trajectory you'll never be able to hit a deer, you're in the dark ages with that rifle.
…The question is overly vague. If the largest animal you're hunting is deer, any will be sufficient. But if you wanted a cartridge that was an all around North American cartridge for any game on the continent, 30-06 is the only answer of the cartridges you listed.
I’m over here wondering …..308
.270
6 GT (for the memes)
30-06
Which one would you take Deer hunting?
Why?
Advantages and disadvantages?
Edit to add:
some people say "6.5cm is unethical for deer" - thoughts?
For most - cost factor would be prohibitively high.Why not.
My next barrel chamber will most likely be a 6mm BRA for a lightweight hunting rifle. Ive got over a thousand pieces of brass that's been retired from duty that will be perfect for hunting loads.
If you recommend a 77gr 223 why wouldn't a GT works slinging a 80-115gr projectile?
ROFL, the most honest and realistic reply in this thread.whatever caliber the pricing gun is that labels the meat at Market Basket would be my choice.
The .458 Lott would be more ethical-er.…
I’m over here wondering ….
If the 400ft/lb 308 advantage over 6.5 CM at the muzzle makes 6.5 CM unethical…
then does the 375 Raptor 400 Ft/lb advantage over 308 make the 308 unethical?

Good Lord!6.5 Creedmoor

Certainly more ethical than intentionally misrepresenting somebody else's position on the subject. People who are less kind would call that being a liar.…

Well, that post was a hyperbolic joke… kinda thought that was obvious.Certainly more ethical than intentionally misrepresenting somebody else's position on the subject. People who are less kind would call that being a liar.
Maybe he's still living in the days of getting hit by a cannon ballWell, that post was a hyperbolic joke… kinda thought that was obvious.
But if you want to get but hurt and call me a liar, I’ll just remind you that you think bullets kill with blunt force trauma, laugh, and disregard what you have to say.
