I have a chance to pick up a lovely Sako 6PPC repeater and was wondering whether it could be used for deer hunting. It has a 1:14 twist, and, from some research with a stability calculator, I don't think it would stabilize any bullet over about 70 grains--maybe 75 at the most. So my question is whether there are any 70-gr. or thereabouts bullets on the market that would be suitable for deer hunting (no larger game).
What do you all think? Is this a fool's errand?
