For you sniper purist, 500-600 yds. may not be long range but that is my limit on hunting game. The longest shot to date is 420 yds. I have done this twice once on an antelope and the second a bull elk. I have access to a range that I can shoot out to 600 yds. So I will have the ability to practice shooting to my self-imposed limit.
My question is will the rifles I presently have, do they give me the ability to kill a bull elk out to 600 yds? I hunt with a 270 with a 22” bbl. and a 338 Win Mag with a 22.5” bbl. I have a 7mm SAUM that I was going to keep at that chambering or re-barrel to a 270 wsm but I have that up for sale due to unforeseen bills that have come in. So if the 270 or 338 want get me to 600 yds. to cleanly kill a bull elk. I could take the saum off the selling block but that won’t make the misses happy
