6.5 Swede. Mild recoil, mild muzzleblast, kills deer dead if you can shoot. I can shoot mine all day from the bench without developing a recoil induced flinch (140gr@2500fps is mild). I use mine for hunting in the mountains of Virginia. A long shot here is 150yds. With a low magnification scope and a light rifle, it's great for still or stand hunting.

The biggest negative is lack of ammo at places like Wal-Mart, but most gunshops carry it. If you handload, it's not an issue...
