    Which caliber?

    I would go with 7 mm mag. If u look around Browning made a 1@8 twist 26-inch barrel. I have a new Browning. A Xbolt Speed Long Range 280AI. Mine has a 1@8 twist and 26-inch barrel. Ammo isn't that hard to find for 7 mm mag. The 6.8 not alot of ammo choices.

    Recommendations for budget-friendly Leupold scope

    I just bought a new Leupold. A VX6 HD 4x24x52mm TMOA reticle. To go on my new Browning rifle. The VX 3 is a good one. I seen a VX5 sale few week ago for 600.00 . I am going to buy a VX3 4.5x14x40mm or a VX5 3X15 44MM. To go on my 300 wby.

    Mountain Lion for a Little Lady

    A big one for sure. I would hate to catch one in a coyote set. I would hate to try to use a catch poles on it!! And release it with just a pole.
