John, you KNEW no one would agree on the BEST.

But the best for me right now, would be my 700, 7 Wby, 3x9 Zeiss with turrets shooting a 168 Berger or JLK over either Retumbo or 7828.

Good to go to 7 broadside, maybe up to 500 with an angle shot, depending. But at distance, I could probably wait for the shot I wanted.
