[QUOTE="just browsing, post: 1053437, member: 87559"] I was in a very similar situation just a few weeks ago: [URL=http://s1111.photobucket.com/user/Garrett_Nesbitt/media/DSC_1389_zpskqyclkpy.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1111.photobucket.com/albums/h475/Garrett_Nesbitt/DSC_1389_zpskqyclkpy.jpg[/IMG][/URL] I'm extremely happy with my decision. As is to be expected, it's been a tack driver since it came out of the box. It will outshoot me on any given day, but I'm getting .6-.75 groups @ 100 yards with factory ammo. Pretty confident that will be in the sub .4-.5 range with a good hand load. I will say that the .300 win mag is, by far, the best choice for what you're looking to do, regardless of what rifle you end up deciding on. One thing to consider: I'm using this as a long range target rifle. That's about all I will ever use it for. Between the scope and bipod, it's definitely not light... I haven't weighed it but if you're traipsing through the woods on a consistent basis, I don't think this is the rifle I would want to be hauling around on my back. [/QUOTE]
