[QUOTE="del2les, post: 3100894, member: 9299"] Then "I" would lean toward a 7mm-08, 260 or AI, or the 6.5CM, but the various 6mm's in fast twist work well. Since you may be shooting 60 or 70 up to 160 rounds over the full 2-3 day course with most targets in the 200-700 yard range and wish to keep your accurate barrel life longer, personally, I would avoid the heavier powder cartridges with shorter barrel life. As a "beginner", I would recommend the KISS principle, and use a cartridge that allows for a lot of practice and has good BC. Depending on your desire to reach various levels of shooting/comp skill.
