homers brother

I would suggest you do a search of the forum. This question's been asked and answered here so often that I've lost count of the times I've seen it.

500 yds??? I thought you wanted to hunt?

HatchieLuvr

$1k rig, 1caliber for "most all of it" out to 500ish yds...

Weatherby Vanguard, 300WbyMag, Leupold vx2 4x12x40.

Simple & effective!

bkautz

yea IOWAWHITETAIL theres not to many guys on this site that like answering our questions...just like to heckle us. Maybe its cause were from Iowa and have the biggest deer in the nation. I dont know.

Whoa!!!! I don't think that's the case at all. It's obvious from the question that the person who asked the question does not have a lot of hunting experience just by the question that he asked. nothing wrong with that, except that only the "MOST" experienced shooter/hunter would be thinking of buying a gun and shooting it to 500 yards - come-on be honest.
One answere gave the gun, and the other was a legitimate response to "500 Yards".
Does he own any guns to hunt with? Ifnot he really needs more help than a gun.
Please forgive me if it sounds like I'm picking on someone, but "read the question?"

How's your elk?

finnbear

Any good quality 30-06,.270 will suffice for elk to 500yds and beyond!!!!
