I am looking or invest in a long range hunting rifle. The areas I hunt in Maine shots in the 300-500 yard range are not uncommon. I am consider a 300 win mag. Whats your thoughts on the caliber selection and what rifle would you recommend?

I'm a big fan of the .300 RUM. My remington 700 really likes 180 grain barnes tipped triple shock and if you happen to be hunting moose the extra knock down power will come in handy. If you're hunting smaller game the .300 Win mag should be great as well!

300 win mag will do just fine just finished sighting my new weatherby vangaard s2 in with a nikon scope on it. Works and feels great. The price was really good as well. I load mine with either Nosler 180 grain Accubond or 180 grain partition protected point Both have taken some nice elk and deer.

He is ignorant...-
