[QUOTE="hotbuzz, post: 1247582, member: 98620"] Hey guys! I'm new to the forum and to long range shooting. I've been hunting for many years now but until recently haven't thought about shooting long range. (Max I've ever taken an animal is ~300 yards) I'm looking to get a setup for shooting deer, elk and bear up to possibly 1000 yards. I want a caliber that won't break the bank since I don't reload. Has plenty of stopping power for big animals at up to 1000 yards. I currently shoot a 7mm rem mag and have been happy with it at the ranges that I use it at (under 400 yards). Any recommendations for a good caliber that meets these specs? so far I'm debating between a 300 win mag or just getting a better 7RM setup, but I'm looking for more opinions. Also if you have any recommendations for rifles let me know, I'm hoping to spend no more than $2000 on a setup right now. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
