Help me Decide....
I shoot for fun and hogs/deer/coyotes on my family's land.. I will more than likely never compete, or even shoot over 600 yds. I got into long (ish) range shooting and bought a budget rig Savage Fcp-K with a Millet LRS-1 scope in 308 and I have enjoyed this combo and have no complaints.
I do all my own reloading. Now I'm looking to buy a new rifle mainly for fun shooting and maybe hogs/deer.
I'm looking hard at another bolt gun, specifically a Ruger Precision Rifle. The 6.5 Creedmoor looks real interesting and is something new. But what I'm struggling with is, considering what I shoot, is it worth having to buy all new brass, dies and bullets for a new caliber, or should I just buy another 308?
I enjoy shooting and load development, so I'm not too worried about associated cost, but I also don't have a money tree growing in my back yard either.
Thanks
