[QUOTE="dfanonymous, post: 2993009, member: 97050"] Pretty sure that’s still at least $100 per box, since the OP has no interest in handloading. A lot of cartridges will work for you. The PRCs in 300 or 7mm. The belted variations of them. They’re all fine. You can do a short action in a 7 SAUM, a lot of guys prefer in sheep country. Although we all like to split hairs here, whatever’s common for you to get in that magnum cartridge category will do the job. Bullet performance, and of course, accurate shot placement being key in any long range mammal slaying. As far as the rifles…again, people complicate things. A lot of rifles you can get right off the shelf can shoot 1 moa or better. My wife’s stupid little ruger American in 708 I’ve gotten to shoot 1/4 moa @ 100y using hornady factory eld after it broke in. [/QUOTE]
