OK... I'm a noob to the rifle seen... The only rifle I currently own is the new Sig 556... I love it, and apparently (according to my wife) I am addicted.
I want to start hunting/target shooting on some land (260 acres).
As far as the Hunting goes, I will be hunting Whitetail deer and coyotes.
I would also like to get better at long range target shooting.
I would love to get to a point where I can hit targets at + 1000 yds. (I know it's going to take practice).
I think I'm set on getting a Tikka T3 (either Hunter or Lite).
What I can't decide on is:
What caliber is going to be best in your opinion for the jobs I listed above?
If you are able to to tell me why, that would be greatly appreciated as well.
.270???
.308???
.30-06???
Please help... Thank you!!!!
