[QUOTE="jridgestalker, post: 1861428, member: 109802"] Well definitely alot of opinions here. In general I would say the .300 Win Mag. With proper bullet selection, it will kill anything and its readily available. It can be carried in a relatively light rifle, recoil is very manageable and almost non existent with a good brake and rifle weight. My rifle is a stock Howa with medium contour threaded barrel. HS Precision stock, American precision arms little bastard brake, glass bedded, with vortex razor glass. Prob hovers at 10# loaded with sling and buttstock pack. It is stable and accurate, and has been carried many miles over some very nasty steep country. It has earned its stripes for sure. Shoots as good as most accurized factory rifles out to 600 yards, carry's well, good selection of quality bullets with high BC. Yes we can split hairs and squeeze more accuracy out....but when it comes down to it....a rifle that can kill a buck reliably out to 500 yards and which shoots a bullet that an carry the energy of the .300 WM, will kill anything in North America within 100 yards, including bears.
