[QUOTE="BigDsDuty, post: 140236, member: 5644"] Keep the info and opinions coming. I plan on doing plenty of long range shooting (practice) and want it capable of taking coyotes to elk and caribou at long ranges, but it's all up to me after that. I really like the fact that everyone is telling me the reasoning behind their thoughts, like brass availabilty and expense. It's my understanding that you just can't beat Lapua brass, but it does come with a cost. I'm not sure what your opinions would be on that, but as far as the ballistics I've seen the .30-338 Lapua and the .338 Lapua look to be top contenders. Maybe I should look into .338 calibers but it just seems that their is more versatlity in the .30 cal range. Y'all are the ones living all of this and I'm just getting into it, that's why I'm asking for everybody's feedback. Thanks P.S. - I want something that can really reach out there and get the job done on a large animal, BUT I want it to be extremely accurate. That's my main concern. [/QUOTE]
