I have always liked 308. Good knockdown power and can also reach out and touch something way the heck out there too. Consider - many high power super long range rifle comps are shot with 308's. Carlos Hathcock, one of the most successful marine snipers of all time used a 308 during shooting competitions too. Not saying it makes that caliber the top dog, but there must be a reason its so popular for competition shooting.

Yep, I like quality firearms . Remington, Ruger, Tikka, Sako, Kimber, Weatherby, Howa and of course Winchester.
Sako, quality? thats too funny. I'd say the only guns worth a darn in your list there are Howa/Weatherby, Remington, and Winchester.
You're kidding right?? Sako/Tikka are one of the best factory rifles you can buy. They are even made by Beretta, since you probably didn't know that.

A golf course is a willful and deliberate misuse of a perfectly good rifle range.
It's either the 7mm Rem Mag using a 160 grain Accubond or the 300 Win Mag using a 180 grain Accubond for me, but Igive the slight edge to the 7 in this regard. You can also opt for one of the short mags but they don't offer any real advantage over the longer actions.
I haven't heard too many good reviews about the thier 16 model. But then again, I didn't hear too many good reviews about the Ruger M77 before I bought mine and it turned out to be just fine.
Well I'm an "American Made" guy all the way, but if there is something better made somewhere else I don't care. I really prefer Remingtons and Rugers, but I'll buy anything that is good.
