[QUOTE="strikeforce32, post: 2383065, member: 35203"] With the budget in mind, and 400 being the barrier on game, I don’t see any reason to move past the .308Win. I’d probably get it in a Savage 16 and top it off with a ZEISS V4 Conquest 6-24x50. I actually have a Remington 700 set up this way. It shoots 1 ragged hole with the Nosler 165 E-Tip ammunition (and even better with the Hornady SST). I believe it checked all of the boxes: Lead free factory ammunition is available Match grade factory ammunition also Minimal recoil Targets out to 1200 should be no problem 400 for elk/moose is getting to the limit but capable [/QUOTE]
