[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1441558, member: 12995"] There is, but for each scenario/type of game you're hunting, that "perfect rifle" and "perfect cartridge" set of needs changes. Sometimes you need more than a .25-06, but sometimes you don't. And sometimes you need less than a .338 Lapua, and sometimes you need more. I guess you could go right in the middle of the spectrum and say the closest thing to the "perfect" caliber & cartridge would be the 7mm RemMag/.280 Sherman/.280 AI/7mm SS cartridges. The 6.5 Sherman & 6.5 SS pushing the new Berger 155's or Matrix 160's would be a close 2nd. [/QUOTE]
