Desert Rat Report post Posted August 24, 2016 This year will be my first coues hunt, had a tag last year but was out of state at the time of my hunt. Wondering thoughts as to what to use for southern unit early Nov. Coues hunt. 308, 243 or 6.5CM? These are 3 that I own and debating which one to bring as my primary rifle.

CouesPursuit Report post Posted August 24, 2016 Currently, a stock Savage 110 in 7mm RM. It's batting 1.000 on 4 deer 2 elk and a javelina. I'd like to eventually go all out on a custom 6.5 for coues and keep the 7mm as an elk and backup deer gun while it still has plenty of barrel life, not sure which 6.5 though after reading this thread along with a couple others going. Cool thread. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AxisWorks LLC Report post Posted September 13, 2016 I should be finishing up my 6.5 Sherman Short build very soon. Stiller Predator Action, 26" 1:8 Proof Research carbon wrapped barrel. Gunwerks Magnus stock with bedding block and recoil lug wedge system. Timney 2 stage trigger, Nightforce ATACR 4-16x42 F1 scope Hoping to get 3100 fps with the 160 matrix out of a true short action. (No Wyatt box required) Please post pictures of Frankenstein soon. Finished the muzzle end tonight on the 6.5 SS by adding a Ryan Pierce Mini Mag "Muscle Brake" Ryan's breaks are extreamly effective and the quality and finish are the best on the market because well...I'm the manufacturer. 😊 Needs trigger, and Cerakote yet but mocked things up and took a picture to share as the build progresses. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
