Deer hunting with 6.8mm
My uncle says that this round is appropriate/ok for hunting deer. Any thoughts? Anyone ever shot it?

The 7mm is a perfect round for deer and even sometimes elk.

Utah hunt starts on Saturday. Can't wait.
Never heard of a 6.8 mm.

I'm sitting out this year's hunt. Too many kids' activities going on. I'm bummed.
I've never heard of a 6.8mm.

It could probably bring down something the size of Victor Unga.

I like the 30-30 for big animals, though the 7mm has a lot of good uses.
