@lostntheblind If you plan to eat the bacon, I have had good luck with my .308 with a Burris Scout, .308 is a great caliber especially if you hand load. If you are looking for pure dispatching, I also enjoyed using my .30-06, it has great power and I used a leupold 1-4x
"you know what i'd really like?"
"tell me"
"a campaign"
"...we can do a campaign"
"a real campaign, no west marches, no morally gray villain bullshit"
"i'll make you a very good traditional campaign. traveling through the forest, kill a dragon, get loot and everything"
