[QUOTE="etisll40, post: 622142, member: 15229"] You do have a 300 win mag, so learning how to reload for that gun would be best I think. Once you get good at that, probably a couple hundred reloads or so, you will be able to understand more about what to build. You may consider 5-600 yards long range, which in my opinion is. Taking game over 800 yards does take great skills and lots of practice and buy a top notch scope for the 300 win mag. If you don't end up liking reloading or long distances you can sell both and get the bulk of your cash back. Buy an RCSB reloading package and a nightforce scope. You can't go wrong with that strategy and you are half way there. There is a good article on reloading and the best RCSB starter kit to buy in "Chuckhawks." I like what they write over there, look it up. Another thought, there is a recent review about the new Browning x-bolt 308 varmint gun that is a tack driver in the review section here. Read it, the 308 is about the easiest to reload and there is good over the counter hunting and match ammo everywhere. It would also be a great out of the box long range practice gun. You can never have enough 308's. I consider the 308 win the best practice caliber re-loading or not for practice. 2cents [/QUOTE]
