[QUOTE="LVJ76, post: 1711494, member: 108965"] As for the cartridge I would get a 7mm Rem Mag, can shoot up to 1000 yds and tons of factory ammo available in case you don't reload. Shoots flatter than the 300 Win Mag and less recoil if that matters to you. With 160gr to 180gr bullets deer and Elk up to 1000 yds is not an issue. As for the rifle I am Remington 700 guy, so a 700 Long Range or the SPS Stainless sound good, both with the 26" barrel. Also, Savage rifles are very accurate, a Long Range Hunter with the Accufit stock and the 26" barrel is another good option For the scope there are several good options, for me Leupold or Vortex have worked great, I havent had issues with them, but like I said there are many good options available. Hope this helps [/QUOTE]
