Hey everyone,
I am getting a little closer to being able to get my next gun. I am going to go with a long range hunting rifle that I plan on using for elk and moose(deer get the 243 treatment.) I have a buddy who raves about his 7mm STW which he shot a cow elk at 700 yards last year with. I am between that and the 300 Weatherby Magnum. Which would you folks recommend and why? I dont plan on shooting that far this year, but I want to try to work up to it. On a side note, I am thinking of a Vortex PST 2.5-10 power optic on it, but I may go with a little more magnification. Any help would be great!
