I’m contemplating putting together a medium weight rifle for 80% hunting and 20% target shooting (just to practice for hunting.) It would most likely be something like an Origin in a Bravo and a 22” barrel, 10 pounds or so.
I’d like to chamber it in a short mag. Idea is to eliminate as much potential for bad wind calls as possible, and maximize terminal performance to a max range of 800 yards (and realistically it’s more like 600.) Factory ammo is strongly preferred. Is there anything out there that fits the bill? Up front I’d prefer milder recoil or a 6.5 or 7, but could be convinced otherwise.
