Since I may be stretching my shots out to 150 yds, I'm going with the 338 Lapua. I should be good because I had the guy at Walmart bore sight my new 3x9 Tasco, so I know it will be good to go. No need to go to the range ahead of time.
Hopefully this post is in jest. 150 yards isn't exactly "stretching" a .338 Lapua out, and bore sighting a rifle--especially when done by the gun counter commando at Wally World--is no substitute for dialing a scope in at the range. Or, maybe it is?

Got to start a little early on last weekends Atoka WMA draw hunt.

That's a dandy buck SnowCamo. Nice looking rifle as well.

We haven't started our Gun Season contest yet. Save that pic and get it entered when we do shortly before the season opener.

That's a good deal. I've been using hand load 110 gr. Accubonds for hunting. I haven't had a chance to try the XM68 GD yet. Would love to have found some for $9.20/box though. I have some Fusion MSR 115gr that I caught on sale at Academy and my rifle likes them also. They look like they would perform well on whitetails.

The 90 grain GD is a bonded bullet. Just shy of 2900 fps. Dropped a 280# boar DRT with one. Accurate too.
