[QUOTE="xsn10s, post: 2397591, member: 95344"] I'd say either one would suit you fine. On the short actions I'd research a detachable mag model. Either factory or ACIS type. Off the top of my head I know the factory DM SA can seat out quite long, but I don't know the OAL. You might be able to use a straight 284 win with 180's for elk later on. A fast twist 25-06 would through some of the heavy 25 cal bullets in the mix. Or just barrel to a 280 rem or 280 AI. Sure a 7-08 would work too, I really like it's numbers too. But there just no arguing that a properly set up 284 win, 280 rem, or 280 AI would give you more range. Whether you need it is another good question. [/QUOTE]
