[QUOTE="nwmnbowhunter, post: 2653864, member: 103431"] Do you reload? If no, buy a setup from someone like TS Custom, flat creek precision, Ryan piece, Pierce engineering. Talk to them and discuss what you are looking for and have them walk you through the build process. And they can also supply ammo for it. If you do reload the 7prc is going to be awesome but it's a couple years away from being really available. So I vote 7saum. Best all around for everything up to elk out to a long ways. 180 grain pill and you'll crush everything. Recoil is very manageable with a brake. I have 2- 300 prc and a norma. I would go prc all day. Recoil is still stout and you can't really shoot more than about ten shots over the course of an hour or you'll never get your barrel cool. If you do 300 prc build as follows. Defiance anti-x or ultralight action... or something similar #3-4 barrel with 9 twist at 22 inches with spiral flutes from karl kampfeld Manners eh3 stock or something similar with one inch decel pad Hawkins lightweight brake Hawkins lightweight bottom metal. But seriously talk to a good smith and plan a build. Ts custom can't be beat. [/QUOTE]
