Sort your results:Existing Search Criteria:Refine Your Search:Search Results:What is the most accurate, light weight, deer hunting rifle (and caliber?)Summary:
For a light weight rifle do you mean the actual weight of the rifle or the kick produced by the gun? Most of the rifles today are so close in weight that any brand name would be a good rifle. As for the caliber, there are so many but one of my favorite calibers would be the 7x57(7mm mouser). The case is the same size as the .257 roberts but is necked up to the 7mm caliber. I hunted with a Ruger M77 7x57 for 20 years and was always satisfied with the accuracy and the knockdown power of the gun. With handloads of the 130 spbt using imr 4350 powder I could shoot sub minute of angle groups at 100 yds and had plenty of knockdown power for hogs/whitetail/coyotes and most anything that walks the forest of Texas. If you want me to list the great calibers I would say the .243, .257 roberts, 25-06, 7x57, 6mm, 7mm-08, .240 and many more that I'm sure others will list. Seriously considering Lake MeredithSummary: Allen, to answer some of you questions...ATVs in designated areas only. The area is 45,000 acres total but I think that includes the lake. The lake is the best Walleye lake in Texas. The Duck and Goose hunting is supposed to be awesome. There should be some quail and pheasant on the area. It should be a great trip but I think the rifle season with the cooler temps and available bird and waterfoul hunting would be better and nicer for camping purposes. I saw nothing about hogs but it is the only public Muledeer hunting in Texas. I suggest a good pair of binos or a spotting scope if you have it for spot and stalk hunting. Lets go get em!
Lightweight riflesSummary: Well if you go with a lightweight rifle chambered in the 300 short mag it will have a pretty good kick to it. I think both rifles you listed are nice but the Sako is the higher end gun and will cost more. I bought a Browning A-Bolt with a boss last year and I love it. Go with the gun that most appeals to you because you will be the one hunting with it.
Love of Hunting. I'm over here rbridges00Summary: rbridges answer to my question, "Which do you like better bow or rifle hunting? "Yes! Really love both in their own rights. It really depends on the circumstances. I really love the challenges of getting close enough to hunt with a bow. But on the other side of the coin, I love the feelin...
ready to goSummary: Thats good, because you will probably see some deer at Aquilla. It sounds like you got some good results with the work you have done on the rifle. What are you shooting, bullet, powder type and powder weight? I have not taken the rifles to the range yet because I have been getting ready for Bow season which starts in just over 2 weeks. I really plan on using the BP more this year because I have a lease that will allow me to see many more deer and have more opportunities.
Pratice, Pratice, Pratice
Summary: You should have plenty of success with all those place to go. I'm kinda putting all of my eggs in one basket this year with the lease out near Burnet. If the lease doesn't pan out it will be off to the Davy Crockett National Forest and the state hunting lands. I also still have one feeder running at the ranch so I can always pick up a buck out there during rifle season if I have to. Good luck to you, hope you kill one like this.
