Absolutely, Adam. I would add .270,.280, Improved's + '06 or '06IMP to the equation. Accuracy is the main criteria - too many hunters I feel, think they've got a terrific long range rifle by the stats pulbished by companies making money off the latest largest calibre, but so few have any experience shooting long range, let alone killing game at long range.

Stalking, crawling, to within 300 meters of a good Stag across the heather is hunting, calling in oose or elk to spitting distant is hunting however shooting from one range to another is shooting, not hunting - in my opinion.
