We do have a definitive answer, people just don't want to see it. For years it was a Tikka in 7mm08, and now I think a better answer is a Tikka in 6.5CM or a Howa in 6.5CM. There are literally...

I would go 6.5 Creedmoor and use it for everything. A 6mm, 25 cal or 6.5mm is a big enough bullet for any game in NZ. 30-06 isn't going to do anything for you other than recoil more. 308 is similar...

It's going to be my crossover rifle that covers my 204 223 and my 1-14 22-250. My 25-06 and 6.5x55 cover the 243 I reckon. I have actually never owned any thing in 6mm! Sent from my SM-A226B...
