Ive been looking into getting a target/deer rifle before the end of the year and it's coming down to a Savage 10FP/10FCP McMillan in .308 or CZ 550 American in 6.5x55 Swede, .270WIN, or .308WIN. Ive been reading for the past few days and the 6.5x55 cartridge interests me being that it's widely used in Europe and it's sort of an uncommon caliber and has a flatter trajectory. I will reload eventually so right now im just looking to buy a box or two of the Swede ammo to add to the ammo collection and use if need be. If I buy the 550 in 6.5x55, ill use the Prvi stuff from AIM Surplus for plinking. I havent read that much on scopes but the SWFA Super Sniper SS10X42 seems like a viable option. The current shooting range that I go to only goes out to 100 yards.
Of course, I could always buy two seperate rifles for different purposes.
