Hello Gents, longtime viewer and first time posting. Great site.
I am putting together my long time dream rifle, with the following components I have purchased.
CZ 550 FS (mannlicher stock and gorgeous)20" barrel and in 30 06 cal. Has fixed sights also which I wanted.
I just purchased yesterday my dream scope for it, a Nightforce NXS 2.5-10 x 32 with the 600 yard reticle NP-1 MV.
My goal is an all around rifle able to take game which will be mostly Whitetail and hopefully Elk in the near future out to 300 yards max.
I am going to put quick detach rings on her, have not decided on those yet.
My main question is I am looking to use one bullet that I can dope up with this scope/rifle combo and stick with it.
Something that will open and expend energy well on thinner skinned and boned deer and still perform well on elk.
Lots of contradictory opinions, could use some advise.
Thanks
