[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 3091527, member: 10"] So you need to qualify your question with a few more requirements. Flattest shooting means nothing unless you add a range requirement. Many examples given are extremely flat shooting to say 300 yards and then fall on their face. Such as the 17 rem, 204 etc….. out to 250 -300 yards certainly flat shooting, at +500 yards all but worthless. You also need to include info like if your want to have a pelt friendly rifle or just want to kill the yote…. Those two criteria will greatly effect the choice of cartridge. I offer many wildcats in my custom rifles that are ultra flat shooting to 500 yards. My 25 and 26 Stalkers loaded with a 100 gr bullet at 4050-4100 fps are about as laser flat as they come to those ranges. Someone wants to extend their range to 1/2 mile, my 27 Stalker or 7mm Allen Magnum are about the tops with proper bullet selection. If you want legit Long Range, over 1k yards, there are better options there. Need to add in a few qualifiers to get back the most useful recommendations to your questions… [/QUOTE]
