How 'bout a 223 case based 6mm shooting 60g-70g BR bullets, like 6x45 or 6TCU? Less powder, less recoil, less cost, longer barrel life, just as accurate or more so at 200.
I am planning to eventually taking the rifle(s) to PA to try my hand at shooting steel targets out to 500 yds+. I already have 4 heavy barreled 223 rifles and I just like the 7mm-08. I also have 3 6.5 Creedmoor rifle, (Savage 12 LRP, Ruger MK77 VT,and d a Howa barreled action on order). I plan to retire in the next few years and plan on doing a lot more shooting. Although I am currently limited to 100/200 yd shooting, I will have the chance to extend out the distance when I have plenty of time on my hands in retirement.
