[QUOTE="Deleted member 25294, post: 719799"] There have been some good caliber recommendations so far. In my personal experience the 7mm remington magnum is about the best all around (affordable) long range performer on medium sized game. This is an easy round to load for, inexpensive components, and mild recoil in an 8 pound rifle (feels the same as a 270 WSM). You should easily get 1/2 MOA from a factory Remington 700 rifle in 7mm. Using a 26" barrel I get 3000 fps with 162 hornady amax bullets, at 1000 yards there's still over 1000 ft lbs of energy remaining. Seriously check out the 7mm rem mag. [/QUOTE]
