[QUOTE="Steve7mm08, post: 125163, member: 6616"] Hi NZ_Longranger Great article to read, good shooting too. I have a couple of questions if you don't mind me asking. Firstly I am using 7MM08 with 140gn accubonds. The scope is a Leupold M4 4.5-14x50. I also use a rangefinder. 1- How far do you think the calibre and bullet will be effective for deer or Tahr sized animals. I was thinking around the 600yd range. 2- If you were starting out again and building a long range rig what specs would you go for? ie calibre, barrell length and components? I am not a fan of big recoil (shooting tends to go to crap) I live in the South Island and have a trip up to the Kawekas planned so I can have a crack at some sika. I'll look forward to more of your articles. Cheers, Steve [/QUOTE]
