Boy there are a bunch of replies to this with everyone talking like you have to have some huge magnum for long range except one post. Of you are truely and I mean that in a serious sense looking for a long range/all around rifle you need to look at the 6.5 class of bullet. I'm talking about a do it all round for North America. You can effectively use a 6.5x284, 6.5x55, 264win mag, .260rem to take any and yes I mean any game in North America. As far as the long range abilities of the round take a look at what Mr.Tubbs uses to make one mile shots. (The 6.5x284) the sectional density and ballistic coefficient that the 6.5 have are extremely well suited for taking anything from pronghorn to moose.
