[QUOTE="memtb, post: 2209236, member: 75451"] Well stated! However, the type of game to be hunted and the type of terrain should also play into the equation! Then, do we intend to have a rifle/cartridge for each specific situation.....or, do we attempt to get the best compromise? If the one rifle/cartridge scenario is used from the smallest to the largest animal potentially encountered in varying terrains......then go heavy on cartridge, light on rifle (within reason) and limit your shots to the maximum range that the rifle/cartridge/shooter is capable of. Your 600 - 700 yard maximum ranges should be quite doable, with the aforementioned combination! 😉. memtb [/QUOTE]
