jortiz+Followtrading my 7 mag for a 308 this fall 🤔After years with the 7 mag, I'm honestly tired of the brutal recoil and ear-splitting report. Way overpowered for most of my shots anyway. Switching to .308 for versatility - can run suppressed with subs for close work or standard loads for longer shots. Reality is I’ve never had an ethical hunting shot past 400 yards anyway, and my hunting trips aren't as frequent as they used to be. Feels like the right move for where I’m at now. Anyone else made a similar switch? #hunting #7mag #308 #suppressedhunting #huntinggear101136Share
bushjill+Followsend-it hunters give us all a bad name 🙄I stick to arrows for close shots and .308 with copper bullets out to 300 yards. Haven't tracked a single deer or antelope - they just drop. Clean kills, minimal meat loss, zero lead fragments. Here's the thing: if you need multiple shots to connect, or you're "walking rounds in," you're not a long-range hunter - you're just being unethical. That ego-driven "send it" mentality creates wounded animals and gives all hunters a bad reputation. Know your limits. Practice within them. One shot, clean kill. #hunting #cleankills #308 #huntingethics #deerhunting180260Share
tyler79+FollowCopper bullets changed my hunting foreverSwitched to Barnes Vor-TX 130gr in .308 and haven’t looked back. Zero lead fragmentation, better meat quality, and it drops hogs hard. Even out of my 16” Ruger American G2 Ranch suppressed, I’m still pushing close to 3000 fps. Copper rounds don’t explode inside game like lead—less bloodshot meat, cleaner kills. Just know their limits past 300 yds. If you’re still using ELDs or SSTs inside 100 yds, you’re probably wasting meat. #hunting #copperBullets #308 #cleanmeat4520Share
