[QUOTE="Montana Gene, post: 1545790, member: 108586"] I have been on this site for a month or so and want to thank you guys for sharing your knowledge. I have learned a lot. I live in Northwest Montana, where it is steep and brushy. I have shot several bulls, but nothing much over a hundred yards. I want to get set up for longer ranges as I want to start hunting the more open country in the state. Based on what I have learned from you guys, I am thinking I will go with a 300 WM with a brake. I'm a little concerned with recoil much beyond that. I will be shooting factory loads and my goal this coming year is to become accurate at 300-600 yards. I am considering the Browning Hell's Canyon Ambush with the McMillan stock, a Christiansen Arms Ridgeline, or the new Fierce Carbon Fury. Any input or suggestions for me? I was also thinking about the Swaravski Z5, 5-22, or maybe a Nightforce? I have enough Cabelas points stashed to buy any of those guns, assuming they will be offering the Carbon Fury soon and I'm going to spend a lot of time shooting this summer. Perhaps some day I can work the range out further but for now, accuracy at those ranges seems ambitious enough. Thanks guys! [/QUOTE]
