    Caliber selection for a 1600m+ rifle

    Thanks guys all been so helpful!! With all that being said it seems like the 300wm is the right choice for me. I would love to own a 338lm but being an Australian citizen reloading costs way too much. Thankyou for all your help :)

    Caliber selection for a 1600m+ rifle

    sorry about that. ive shot many calibers from .22 up to .416 Barrett. My main target will be steel but its nice to have the peace of mind that i can take out one of the many deer that roam the property from a reasonable distance. I'm a little strapped for cash so I'm looking for something under...

    Caliber selection for a 1600m+ rifle

    Hey guys ive been searching around for a new rifle for a while now. i was pretty set on a 300wm but everyone seemed to talk shit about them and call them 'barrel burners' and what not. So im asking what do you think a suitable caliber would be? This will be a one mile rifle. Thankyou for your...

    The dealer has no problem getting them in. I've shot one in .338 LM and they feel pretty sturdy. I'm not 100% on them though

    Pretty much it's only what I can either buy second hand or whatever the local gun shops can order in (which isn't a lot)

    Once again man these two rifles are the only half good rifles available to me in this caliber.

    Do you think its worth waiting the time for the Armalite? 6 months seems like a while to wait for a gun

    Had a chat to a few gun stores. They won't be able to get Armalite's AR-30 in for another 6 months :mad:

    It looks like a nice rifle but once again the availability just isn't there. Pretty much I have to choose between a Armalite or Savage

    yes i have shot heaps of calibers from .270 right up to a .416 Barrett. I dont know why i have just always taken a shine to the .300WM, its just a personal preference. I will on the occasion be shooting deer with this rifle but it will not be a regular thing. I would probably prefer buying a...

    Thanks for all the comments guys :) those all look like real nice guns but being an Australian resident I'm not too sure of the availability of some of the suggestions. Has anybody had any experience with the Armalite AR-30?? They don't look too bad for the money and are pretty readily available.

    im looking to spend under 5 thousand if possible. my local range goes out to 900m and majority of my shooting will be there. I have been suggested a Savage BA110 or Remington 700. i just would love to know what some of my choices out there are.
