    Yeah .308 vote here too, 16". Easy to get ammo. If you see a deer at 500 yards then it is more than capable of that. You can buy a 16" Tikka one already threaded off the shelf.

    Yeah I was in the same boat as you last year. 223 just wasn't cutting it for night work on deer and everything else I owned had too much recoil and is a pain losing sight of the animal at night. ...

    The new pard scopes are apparently a lot better. I had a pard 008 but had quite a small field of view, because of the mounting setup it also got knocked out fairly easily in the side x side. I use a...

    I use it for 130gr speers and it is very accurate. Never chronographed it though so can't comment on velocity.

    tikka liked post by TLB On thread : ideal barrel length for 223, is there a formula?
    Quite a few of the cullers run 12" to 14" barrels and they shoot a fair amount of animals so 16" be fine. Mine is 15" or so and have no trouble shooting deer with it. Even out at 300 plus yards seem...

    I have a suppressed 12 gauge. It certainly brings the sound down. Similar to a suppressed centerfire rifle. Subsonics aren't impossible to get but to be honest the suppressor mustn't be able to...
