Hunters, Target shooters, and enthusiasts alike, what would be your choice of rifle and caliber if you wanted to shoot long range (300 yds+)? Anything is fair game, whether you own it or not.
Personally, I'm a fan of the Remington 700. To me, that gun does it all, it even shoots by itself! It's hard to argue with the proven action of the Remington 700, being used by the Army and Marines (M24,M40), many police organizations, and as the basis for several other weapon types.
Depending on the range of the shot, I'd generally take it in 30-06. The extra weight of the rifle would be made up for by the huge variety of handloads for it and ammo availability. If its a really long shot, I'd love to take one in .338 Lapua.
What would be your choice?
