Archer hunter who is not a gun expert but wants to shoot to 400 yards max. My advice is that stuff dies easy when shot with a 30/06, 270 win, 308, 280 Remington, and yes, even a 6.5 Creedmoor. I'd strongly suggest the following for a setup that would not cause you to have a terrible flinch, have cheaper ammo(equals more practice hopefully) and allows you to kill big game to 400 yards.
