I currently reload and own .223’s and 6.5 Creedmoors.
I’m looking into buying a CVA Scout single shot rifle and chopping the barrel down to 16-18” and putting a lightweight scope on it. This will be my “Run & Gun” deer rifle to hunt WMA’s and private land for Deer. I’m shooting for 7# total weight. Light, Compact and all around fun gun.
I’m stuck between .300 blackout, 45-70 or just going 6.5 Creedmoor being I own all the brass/bullets/primers/dies for it...
What’s your thoughts?
