I think the most important thing is taking a SHOWER!!!! i dont mean this to be offensive at all but if you or anybody else cant get closer to a deer or sheep then 1000 yrds then i firmly belive it's bath time. I think a lot of people on here are right a 1000 yrds is far!! i mean the naked eye at 20/20 cant see a deer at 1000yrds unless its winter and you have a good backdrop i have been shooting a custom rem 700 6mm/22-250 with hand loads for 5 years and i just got comfortable at 500yrds last year even with good optics a deer or sheep at that far would be coverd by the cross hairs!! :confused: i also do a lot of rodeo shoots and there are guys that talk **** all day about how far they shoot and that they took there deer at 700 yrds then those same people shoot 100,200,300 yrds at the rodeo and get scores of 20 or 30 out of 50!!!. I think you should turn off Best in the West, take your hunting rifle out and try to shoot 500, 600, 700 yards accurately and don't blame your rifle for the misses because chances are that it is more accurate than you. You want to practise long range thats fine, you want to hunt long range that your choice, but I really don't think that you can fully grasp what 1000 yards is let alone 500 yards. Thats would be the hunting set up, however if you wanted to practise you can't get cheaper than a 223 rem (same principles apply). There are going to instruments (wind readers, range charts, range finders). At that range one of the most expensive parts of your set up will be your optics, don't skimp out! Get on a first name basis will a great gunsmith (not good, great). Learn to reload and be open to others knowledge on the topic.
If it has lots of recoil you can have a break installed (if that floats your boat). You want a really accurate rifle, either start from scratch (buy the action, stock, barrel, trigger) or buy a brand that is known for accuracy (remington, sako, tikka, savage, insert favorite brand here) or what ever you can afford you can glass bed it or pillar bed it (if it isn't already). I don't think your an experienced shooter (I wouldn't even consider myself experienced enough for what your talking about), but your ballsy enough to ask so I will give you my thoughts on the subject.ħmm Rem Mag, loads of power, great bullet selection (great BC and SD ). 308 win has its limitations but not without alot of benifits for beginning shooters (very moderate recoil), where a 300 win mag is more benificial for a more experienced shooter (recoil, recoil, recoil). Hell an 30-06 has enough energy to take game at 500, as does a 308 win, as does etc.ģ08 win and 300 win mag are identical calibers (.308) the cartridges are completely different. 223 but that's too small, anyway if anybody has some info on what i should buy it would be appreciated. 308 and 300 are these good calibers? also. Hey i'm looking into a long range hunting rifle and i'm not sure what caliber to get, i would like to shoot very accurate at 500 yds and ok at 1000 yrds, does anyone out there have any info on some calibers good for these ranges, and i also like the rem 700 xcr long range but it is only chambered in a.
