[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1156805, member: 30902"] .5 MOA consistently is not going to be likely with the average factory rifle without a great deal of work improving on what you have and then a whole lot of careful load development. For your needs a 7mm Rem would certainly do the job economically. The .26 Nosler is certainly interesting but after 2 years of thinking hard on it I opted to put it off, probably permanently. With the rifles I own already there's just no need for it. If you want a 6.5 the .264wm will do what you need and give you much better barrel life. I've also learned over the years that maxing out overbores like the .26N makes for a very finicky rifle that you may never be happy with. [/QUOTE]
