[QUOTE="memtb, post: 1869037, member: 75451"] The primary point of this exercise, was to get people “out of their comfort zone”. For them, to attempt to put together a (as in one) rifle package, single cartridge, to use for “all” of North America.....knowing that compromises would have to be made! I just wanted to see how people would approach “this” scenario/criteria....where and how they would make their compromises! About 31years ago, I put myself through a similar process. I put together “my” rifle/cartridge package, it meets all of the listed criteria. While I’m limited to 800-900 yards maximum ( Leupold CDS scope limitations), with a self-imposed limit of 600 yards.....it’s worked, as desired, for 30+ years! I can even get “bonus points”, for being sub-9 pound.....if I hunt with only one round in the rifle! ;) memtb Correction: I “don’t” get the bonus points! I was 3 ounces over....my memory’s not so good! :( [/QUOTE]
