Q - The Fix

[bascott1]

Im never against getting a new rifle. But, I don’t think you’re going to gain much from a 308 or 6.5creed from a 7mm-08. A m70 compact with 140 grain accubonds sounds like a good combo for out west. Id rock the classic m70 baby.

Compact m70 is the answer. You probably won’t have it strapped to your pack while hunting antelope anyway. Plus, it’s not like there’s lots of trees to get hung up on in antelope country if you do decide to carry it on your pack. I’ve never owned a folder and somehow I am able to hunt “backcountry” every year!
