I can finally afford to go on a nice week long whitetail hunt out of New York. this mean i have to get a rifle to shoot longer ranges than my .444 can go. so i was thinking .308 or .338 federal. i know that question was asked before( still like to here fresh ideas), but i was thinking of being able to have a switch barrel gun with maybe the addition of.260. i dont know if theres a differnce between the model 12,16 and 10 actions( is one easier to work on). but a shop has all three. so any help would be great. the guide said most shots are inside of 500yds. im not shooting over 300 because thats the farthest i can practice.
