G\'day to all (new member)
Hello all,
this is my first post here, I'll be asking a lot of questions about this form of hunting as I'm am going about building(hopefully) a decent long range rig.
Currently I use a 6PPC for small and medium game, out to 300m I am very confident so I want to move up a step.
Initially I was thinking about a .300RUM but have decided to go for a .308win.
I'm into Sako, and for where I live (Italy) they are the best barrel/action/trigger/stock you can get out of the box in my opinion.
My 6PPC is a Sako varminter and will shoot in the .2's.
On this one I am planning on making it a custom rig, if I can get around all the beurocraps.
Mcmillan A-2 or A-4 stock, Sako M591 action and shilen barrel look like the final choices.
If not, I'll see if I can get the 75 varminter action to fit the McMillan stock and be happy with a factory barrel.
Nightforce NF 8-32x56 on top, not the NXS as I don't like the 1/4MOA clicks and don't need the adj obj on the turret for an extra $400.
SO, what do you think?
