[QUOTE="Brandi, post: 2602638, member: 24446"] Personally I love the Savage Weather Warrior 116 FCSS .30-06 for anything in north America for it's exceptional accuracy out of the box and price, basically the best most accurate rifle made under $1000. So by your criteria my choice for something that could hunt worldwide and be used for long range shooting I would choose the Savage 111 Long Range Hunter in .338 Lapua Magnum or the Savage 116 FCSS in .338 Win mag. I would love to own a .375 H&H just for the historical aspect of the caliber, anything bigger would probably be just too much recoil to actually enjoy. Now if we remove the long range requirement then I'll always go with my .50 Beowulf. Definitely enough power to drop anything walking the face of the earth with a big nasty 350 grain solid brass Spitzer inside 150 yards. Unfortunately, being an AR, it can't be used for hunting in most countries overseas but I live here and couldn't afford an African safari if I wanted to so no problem. Between my Savage .30-06 and my .50 Beowulf there's nothing on this continent that I can't hunt. Plus I have my .264LBC/6.5 Grendel for long range fun. [/QUOTE]
