[QUOTE="Derek M., post: 435299, member: 2693"] Keep it simple for starters. I recommend a proven 7mm Rem Mag or 7 WSM and a VLD bullet or Amax or Accubond 2nd choices. Get a 9 twist or 9.5 twist barrel with a canted or Russian style land for ease of cleaning. I'd try a 168 or 180 VLD first and make sure the builder has the right lead angle appropriate for the VLD style bullets. My second recommendation is a 300 WSM with a 185 or 190 VLD. That gets you into a 30 cal, with plenty of powder, no belted case. Get an 11 twist bbl. [/QUOTE]
