I have shot elk at about 300 yards with both a .308 and a 30-06 with shooting sticks. I have passed longer shots. With shooting sticks I would draw my shooting limits at about 400 yards maybe 450.

I am essentially looking for something that gives me reach out to about 450 yards with authority with good accuracy and does not have a nasty kick.

So is the 7mm not very consistent ? Are there better options for what I am looking to do ?
