    Alpine Rifle - Factory Ammo

    Time to start dreaming up ideas on rifles with the lock down in place.

    What are peoples opinions on what would be a good option for a shortened, suppressed alpine rifle. Essentially a "Super Pig" - 20 to 22 inch barrel - 600y maximum.

    The kicker is that it would be with factory ammo only, no reloading.

    6.5 PRC seems like it could be an option, although it might not have the knock down of the 7mm and 300 magnum calibers but might be nicer to fire in a lighter, shortened package?

    Haven't had any real world experience with them so would be keen to hear peoples opinions if they have.

    Currently have a 26inch barreled 7mm rem mag with a suppressor, but just toying with ideas of a more compact and better balanced rifle still capable on the tops with factory ammo.
