[QUOTE="skip AI, post: 128087, member: 4052"] I have a mate who wants to build a rifle to use on fox, pig and small deer out to 800m. He has a .30-06 action to use but is uncertain on which calibre to use. So far I have suggested: .243 AI .260 AI 7mm-08 .25-06 AI What are your thoughts? He does not really want to use more than 50gns of powder per shot and wants some pretty decent velocity and trajectory/energy. He wants to use high BC bullets so it wont blow around to much and a barrel with a maximum of 26". cheers [/QUOTE]
