   I’ve had them all… of the ones currently being discussed still have 300win, 7 rem, 6.5prc and 7prc. 7prc ticks a heap of Boxs

   If you want a shorter barrel and factory ammo 1 of the 6.5 cal take your pick. I know which one I would choose. Sent from my CPH2145 using Tapatalk

   I love my short barrelled 300wsm. I’m of the thought that short and thick does the trick… long and thin goes too far in!

   +1 for 300WSM, very managable recoil for mine with a maniatis suppressor/brake combo. The biggest downside is factory ammo availability, there was only 1 shop in the region that had any, which sold...

   Couldn’t help myself, if we’re doing ballistics.. this is the 7prc with a 20” barrel, 175 berger elete hunter starting out at 2800, and a 180 eld-m starting out at 2750. Moderate speed, I could get a...

   I went with a 7mmRM as a second rifle. At the time my main gun was a 7mm08 and i wanted more hitting power for open country. The rem mag has been excellent but you also need good optics to go with...

   I’d look at a 7RM or 300WSM, particularly if not reloading. If you are reloading then it opens up a lot more options as mentioned. 300WM is just a lot of gun. 7 PRC will be cracker if they come out...

   Mate, id just get a decent scope and load sorted for the 270 if not already and use the rest for ammo. i comfortably push my 270 to 800 yards on deer using 150 Berger's but the ranges you mention you...

    Nobody has mentioned the mighty 7mmWSM, I’m feeling left out :( But yeah, not the best option if you don’t reload. Even if you do it’s a pain to get brass. I agree with Jus re. 7mm being ideal...

    With the development of modern slippery bullets and faster twist barrels on factory rifles I can see the writing on the wall for the big magnums in all but specialised use. There's a general trend...

    If I do it again I would stay either 300wsm or 300wm. I'm a suckered for 30 cals. Below is what the 200g ELD x was doing out of my rifle. 241739

    All 3 cartridges you've described will be more than adequate along with several others. Pick the cartridge you like the look of, you don't tip ugly strippers.
