[QUOTE="BigNate, post: 2417514, member: 301"] Trying to do everything with a single caliber is hard enough. One cartridge is worse. If you're planning on taking big game at longer distance I'd recommend going into it with more gun than the ones you've listed.... it can be done but larger might be better. I'm looking at 6.8 Western, 280AI, or something approximately in that performance level. 7LRM or 28 Nosler would be about the top. Economic considerations wise, I'd go with two cartridges the smaller being a 6.5 for cheaper fun, and smaller game. The larger would be for distance and bigger game. [/QUOTE]
