    Use the 6mmBR or 30BR case , take your pick of calibers . Maybe use .311 like the 303 ( that caliber is ingrained in NZ and Aussie culture ) Depending on the barrel twist chosen then you could drive lighter bullets fast enough out of that case to knock over most things in NZ out to 200yrds ( look up the 30BR's ballistics it is very effient and pushes 110-120gn bullets quite quick ), but it could also be used sub sonic with heavier bullets .
    Sort of a short 303 without the trouble of the rim .
