[QUOTE="jrkotz, post: 1452770, member: 24189"] I'm at a point where I need to thin the heard. My safe is full and I have a few duplicates. What is your handful (more or less) of preferred hunting bolt action rifles and calibers? I think my planned core group of hunting bolt guns is as follows (in order of caliber) - Savage 93 in 17 HMR, 17 gr VMAX CZ 527 in 20 Vartarg, 32 gr VMAX Savage 12 LRPV in 20 Dasher, 55 gr Berger Savage MKII 22 LR, 40 gr CCI ULA in 243, 90 gr Scenar Colt Lite Rifle in 25-06, 110 gr ELD Savage 16 in 6.5 WSM, 140 gr Berger Remington model Seven in 7mm-08, 120 gr NBT Custom Remington 700 in 28 Nosler, 195 gr Berger Kimber Mountain Ascent in 308, 125 gr NBT Kimber American 300 WSM, 180 gr TSX Ruger 77 in 375 Ruger, 260 gr NAB Considering buying a Bergara ridge 300 WM to replace the Kimber. Ease of finding ammo in remote places/threaded barrel interest in owning a Bergara is motivating that. I like light rifles, but am finding out that they're not easy to shoot long distance with. What am I missing out on? Trying to have a well filled out bolt gun selection that I can have a rifle to hunt just about anything. Thanks guys [/QUOTE]
