Thread: 600M GUN

I’d suggest 7mmRM or 30-06, both capable of taking NZ game out to 600.... but require accurate shot placement. To my mind the bigger question is factory ammo. Having the right calibre is only half way there - you need to have ammo with the right type of high bc pill that will shoot accurately, preferably 0.5 moa or better in your rifle. And don’t believe the speed written on the box. So you want to check which calibre/s offers the best range of long range high bc factory ammo. For any long range shooting you really need to go to hand loads so you can get the performance needed from your rifle. I hand load for pretty much all my rifles, and have occasionally tried some of the new wiz-bang flash harry factory ammo and been very disappointed
