[QUOTE="HuntFarther, post: 894160, member: 59584"] I want to hear what you would build to shoot really accurate out to 1000 but maybe to the end of the flight path. I am not looking for a elk rifle just something that would shoot tremendous easily. I want something like a sender weight gun. Would you go custom action, or a honest trued Remington if you have it? I would do a long action. What length barrel? Scope? I am thinking the 8-32 nightforce with a 20 or 30 moa base. 65 moa is still a lot. The biggest is what caliber, I am not thinking anything to high performance and something that would just lay there when fired. Would like fairly long barrel life. The caliber I am thinking is a 243win or Ackley with a 7.5 barrel to shoot the 115 berger. I have seen a few Ackley shoot that bullet at 3100 with a 27" barrel. I would put a brake on it maybe just a vias or a side port. So guys in the long range that has a rig like I am talking about what do you have? [/QUOTE]
