[QUOTE="MoBoost, post: 1888389, member: 3455"] Since you don't want to reload and yet want to reach out to 400 - I would recommend 308 Win from mere accuracy point of view: it will be a lot easier to find factory load that will be satisfactory at that distance, plus it will be easier to find an accurate factory rifle in 308. 7mm-08 is a great cartridge - but factory loads might be finicky, and generally loaded in bullet to light for the bore (140gn). 30-06 and it's off-springs - with modern bullets, I don't see a need for so much case for such a small bore.
