My first distance rig was a .308 and still is the same .308. I love it and plan to burn the barrel out on it and re barrel to 260. I'm wanting to do a build for extended ranges. As it is right now I can get out to 1k with 175's or 155's though my rifle seems to like 175 SMK's more wich is odd since it's 1/12. Anyways I will be putting this rifle together slowly not in much of a rush but I want to build off of a remington action. I don't have all the money to drop on a full custom. Thing is with so many calibers out there I'm not even sure on what I want to build! I figure I would get the best information and input off of a site tailored around long range though.
Now I'm not sure on the capabilities of some of the new rounds out there but have always been a fan of 300WM. I'm thinking the 300WM would only be good at about 1400 yards if I'm pushing em real hot. Correct? Well if you guys have any suggestions on specific rounds and info on em I would appreciate it fellas. Thanks!
