[QUOTE="vikingsniper, post: 955460, member: 76717"] Look, if your questioning the 300win because of recoil and dont want to use a brake, then STAY away from it. There is nothing worse than have a gun that is more than capable of taking the game, but you cant hold the **** rifle steady or you flinch the shot. I see nooothing wrong with the 308 out to 500 yards and I have always been a big fan of the wsm's (for some reason they recoil less in rifles of the same weight). 30-06 is a fine choice, but i like the 308 better. I have magnumitis so I like em a bit more stout, but for 500-600 yards I vote 308. But ill throw a curveball...how bout a .264 win with 140gr pills. If it is a hunting rifle then barrel life wont be a factor [/QUOTE]
