6.5cm or 308 to go further on the cheap.
To hunt with out to a 1000? 7 or 300 PRC. Obviously 300 win or 7 rem would be cheaper. I don’t know but Budget and long range just don’t mesh well

Great post Dre, but I think he wants to practice at 1,000 yards hoping to become proficient at 6-700 yards. The guy must be loaded, or half cocked though.. The only way you get good is by shooting a lot. Even guys with natural ability need to practice, and practicing that much with factory ammo just doesn't make sense.. To each their own I guess..

Thanks. I try! Lol.
Yeah I misunderstood the 1000 yarder. I was assuming since it is long range hunting.
This is also before I knew he has a 6.5 PRC


All of them do something better than the 30-06, but none of them do everything as well.
