I agree on steel it is, i took from your og post it was more aimed at long range hunting rather then gong shooting. factory 6.5 ammo won the south island toby shoot through a standard t3 sporter

Greetings Sanctuary and all, One thing that only caberslash has brushed on is the need for a faster twist to stabilise the heavier and longer high BC projectiles that you want to use. I wouldn't go...

Rimutaka ranges a good place to start with plenty of slips an open faces they come out on

It would be good if any Wellington fella's on here can point out a range for this guy. Target shooting on DOC land is not a good idea.

I went down the custom 243 path, 1:8 twist trueflite barrel still in a short action, I do load out long to the max i can fit in the magazine with 108gr pills. I'm not running hot over book charge...

If you are going to mainly target shoot (steel and or paper) and you plan to shoot a lot then 6.5CM, 223, 308, 243 etc make sense Big magnums are fine but expensive to run and if shot a lot recoil...

6mm Creedmoor is a strong one to consider if you want high velocity and low recoil. Stubby case designed for long bullets and AICS magazines. Newer, high BC 6mm bullet designs need a fast twist...

Rust is through a lack of care, Howa's might not be top end but certainly not a low quality product. If you are being sensible, a 6mm or 6.5 Creedmoor Howa in a KRG Bravo is going to be unbeatable...

Reloaders has Howa barreled actions with heavy profile carbon barrels in 6.5 PRC and CM, and. 308 if you feel so inclined.

Tikka , Sako would be good contenders but for the ranges you mention I think the Creedmoor may be lacking in power. 300 Win and 7mm Rem would be good for the longer range stuff but as stated above...

For shooting steel/target from 500-1000 mtr. The 6mm's are very popular in US, either 243 with fast twist barrel or 6mmCM but you would have to reload as not a lot of 103 - 115gr long range factory...

probably not a bad idea to look at the christensen arms semi custom rifles in something like 300 PRC. They'd be still useful in other types of shooting too as an RPR is really heavy.
