Awesome! That's alotta Whinin' in a very short time! The Excuses were quaint to. Congratulations?!?
Glad you liked.
Only you will be "surprised" to learn,that I've never not helped them who ask for it. I gave you etched in stone facts,upon a silver platter and you cain't even know it...which is again,why it is soooooooo [bleep] funny! Read it all again. Hint.
You gave me advice about scope rings.
On this thread you have had nothing but smartass comments to make.
Everything is funny or hilarious to you.
But then again its like that with Morons.
As mentioned prior,shut the [bleep] up,slow the [bleep] down,take notes and apply same. Hint.
What a condescending Moron you are to tell anyone to shut up.
You are the one that should shut up but you cant see that.
Hilarious to me,that you are under the opinion that anyone could make you appear to be the amazingly inept dumbfhuqq you are,better than you can...by your simply doing your "best". Read that again. Hint.
Once again everything is Hilarious to you.
But Morons dont realize they are Morons.
Including you.
I'm simply afforded the luxury of not being forced to guess and ain't it poignantly poetic,that them facts fly over your pointy head and grant you the opportunity to showcase your Imagination and Pretend? Might I suggest that you interject some Secret Squirrel PM's,so as to REALLY make a "stand" and tug at heart strings. Laffin'!
No need for secret PM's ,I said in public what I think of you.
I dont like you.I think you are a condescending smartass ,
A legend in your own mind who plays tough guy to get attention.
As far as I am concerned if you were not on the Campfire it would be for the better.
You "lucky" bastard,you don't even have to play dumb...if only because it's a birthright and you've that unfair "advantage" to flaunt and wield without mercy.
So I am a Bastard?
Since you want to go there,Have you figured out yet which one of your Uncles is REALLY your Daddy?
Laffin'!
Laff Laff Laff Moron.
Looking forward to your next Whine and even more Excuses,as you reflect in the sweet "satisfactions" that must be your's,of basking in the "sanctity" of 40yrs of sheer and utter [bleep] cluelessness.
No Whining,No exuses,Just comments on your stupid way of addressing people who ask questions.
Just take your meds,get drunk again and tell yourself that your ok.
Youre really not though.
Bless your heart.
Blessing from you ?
Yea I bet you really do think you have that kind of power or influence.
If your meds arent working(and obviously they aren,t)Try something different.
The man may be a bit crass.... but he ain't wrong Craig.
I'll interpret for you...
The most important thing in this whole equation is not the rifle... it's the bullet, and all things pertaining to its hasty departure. Many rifles, factory '06s and 7 Rems, are fully capable of pounding stuff at far beyond 700 yards. The things they most often have in common.... are the bullet(s) chosen.... and a well seasoned nut behind the trigger.
Going factory rounds, hamstrings your bullet/load options severely from the start... and you leave not only accuracy... but consistency on the table. You're also far less likely to shoot enough to season said nut.... cause it costs too much. If you're ok with that.... so be it.... but it's a tough 700 yard row to hoe.
Either the '06 or the 7mm in a semi-custom or SPS LR are good choices for long range play (the 7 being far superior IME) per se..... it's the factory ammo choice that kinks us again...
7 bills isn't that tough... provided rifle, glass, and bullets are sound. The tough part is bringing all that together.... there in lies work. So, buying/building a rifle for LR work.... then feeding it sub-par factory ammo..... is like buying a brand new Ferrari... and filling it with 83 octane fuel. Then to top it off.... you'll probably bytch about 'performance'.
If ya gotta go factory fodder, there's really only two choices for a 1/2 mile gun.... .308 and 6.5 Creed.
To answer your original question. I'd go 7 Rem SPS LR... and hope the HSM 168 Berger ammo shot well out of it..... but you'd better cross your fingers.
