[QUOTE="Hand Skills, post: 1861707, member: 103303"] To fulfill the requirements with an off the shelf rifle, I'd be looking for a Ruger Hawkeye stainless or Winchester Extreme Weather in 30-06 or perhaps 300 WSM. Topping either off with an NXS 2.5-10x42 or Leupold VX5HD 3-15x44, makes a sturdy and reliable package that will be effective past 500yd and still be somewhat functional in the thick stuff. "Anyone who claims the 30-06 is not effective has either not used one, or else is unwittingly commenting on their marksmanship." -Phil Shoemaker [/QUOTE]
