How about getting one of these for deer and elk hunting, you can even get them with a 5 round magazine and a collapsible stock.

That 18 in barrel is going to minimize velocity, and subsequently range. You will already lose some velocity in the semi-automatic action. They are also heavier than typical bolt guns.

Here is where that gun loses my interest, "9.65 lbs unloaded and unscoped" With optics and a mag full of ammo it'll carry like a CZ in 416 Rem.

My main hunting rifle weighs that much unloaded, but that's including the scope, mount and bipod. Sounds like it's just too heavy and, I dunno, just looks to militia for hunting.

Reaction time is a factor...

my .375 weighs a pound more than that, and i would take it elk hunting. the .375 has a lot more punch than the .308 though too.
