ok gents.... I am buying several rifles of various calibers for no other reason than I love to collect guns for the love of guns. I recently have been intrigued with the smaller faster rounds. In addition to those in the thread title I am also buying 204, 17 Remington, 17 fireball, 22-250, 22 mag, 17 HMR, 7mm-08, 223, 22lr, 17 mach2. I am getting into long range bench rest target shooting and varmint hunting. but I want to also shoot at 600-1000 yards. my first reaction is to grab the 6 mm BR Norma for those ranges. but I know the 308, 6mm-284 would be fine as well. I am curious if I wanted to use the 17 fireball or 17 Remington or 204 and even 22-250 for those 600-plus yard shots how should I approach this? do I go with heavier bullets? make them hotter? how do you think these types of situations out? long range with a smaller bullet? I am new to the long range precision world. any help would be much appreciated.
thanks,
vince
