[QUOTE="Broz, post: 253978, member: 7503"] I am going to put in a vote for the 300 Win Mag. Since you are going to shoot factory ammo for a while you will for sure appreciate the cost and selection of the available ammo. You can also select a factory ammo that utilizes good brass and save it for the day you start reloading. Since the 300 win is so popular you gan also choose some factory match ammo. Bottom line is, they are all .308 cal and if you are going to go for 1000 yards or farther you will probably be shooting a 190 to 210 gr bullet. Since you will be dialing the scope for each shot distance, velocity is not an issue. 2900 FPS is all that is needed to get a 210 out to almost a mile and still be supersonic. The 300 win brass and barrel will last you a great number of shots and also is a joy to shoot. We just made the same decission and we are very happy with the win. Jeff . [/QUOTE]
