7mm rem mag or 300win mag if shooting factory ammo, otherwise I'd say 300wsm the big issue with hand loads will be primers, large rifle magnum primers are the latest unicorn turds. My old Sako...

7mm is the ballistic sweet spot. A 280 Winchester, 7rem mag, 7saum, 7 prc would serve you well. Out to 600 yards most of those rifles can get away with a short barrel. I have a 20” 7prc pushing a 175...

I went .308 to 7rm just because I got a great deal on a great rifle it served me well I feed it 2225 215feds and 162 amax and eldx. Either will serve you well recoil will be less with a brake but...

When I was looking to go to a long range tops gun I was leaning toward 7mm RM, then ended up with 300 WM. A light rifle with 26 in barrel so went muzzle break which works incredibly well on recoil...

I’ve got a wsm and wm, only fired a mates rm. I’d go with the wsm personally and suppressed over braked although I think it’s the ATec you can put a brake on the end of the suppressor. Wsm recoil is...

If you're prepared to drive a couple of hours north (Parua Bay, Whangarei), I could potentially take you out to the Hen & Chicks on Boxing Day. It would have to be a very early start though, as in...

Had this issue with a night force mount. And i had less room than hou have on the front so I went and re mounted my Rem bases and popped a set of leupold prw rings on. Problem solved.

100% agree Tentman. Although they've got keen eyesight and will bolt if they work out what you are they're also curious animals. One minute you're alone on the hill thinking there's nothing around...

I’d stick with the plex. I had the Sig E3, and I found there was to much going on. In terms of the reticle but also the illumination turret. It sticks out quite far. I do more bush hunting so...

Depends on your hunting mate. I have the illuminated version and rate it in the bush which is where most of my hunting is, purely from the aspect that you often don't have much time to take that...
