    They're not liberals, they're leftists. Please don't use the former for the latter. Liberals are Locke, Jefferson, Burke, Hayek. Leftists are progressives, Prussian state-socialists, fascists. Liberals stand against the state and unequivocally support liberty. Leftists support state tyranny.

      I shoot my elk with 270 or 06 easily out to 400yds on more than one, no need for mag calibers. Just know your dope!

        i am sure his 1200 yard was not a lets take game at 1200 yards. he could have just said id like a gun that can shoot sub .7" groups at 100 yards. That is about average for calguns group size

          [QUOTE=Aeonstar;23041004]Tika in 300 win mag with a brake on it. Wear ear protection and its 6.5lbs/QUOTE]

          My Tikka T3 Lite in .300 mag will do all but the 1200 yard requirement. I don't shoot at anything that far, so it is a moot point for me. I certainly would not shoot at game that far. I don't have abrake on it but I did put a Limbsaver recoil pad on it with a no-longer made Burris Short Mag scope.

            Yes I have the rifle you describe.
            A Remington 700 CDL in .30-06.
            Weighs 7.5lbs without scope. Scope and rings and weigh in at 1lb. Making my setup 8.5 lbs. add another couple of ounces for the sling.
            I paid $700 10 years ago. You should be able to find one for around that price today.
            It also comes in other calibers that can meet your needs.

              B) Can place 9 out of 10 shots on an 8 inch plate at 1200 yards within 60 seconds. (Assuming competent marksmanshp.)

              C) Can be used for an elk hunt.

              D) Uses readily available factory ammo.

              E) Has a street price of less than $1,200 (no optic).

              Do I have to build, or am I looking for a factory rifle?
              Requirements A&E cock block B.
              Requirement B is unrealistic for anyone without significant longrange experience and wind reading skills.

              The mere creation of such a set of requirements already shows that the OP lacks the necessary skills because nobody uses a sporter weight barrel to shoot 10 rounds at 1200yds and actually expects it to be sub 2/3 moa beyond about the 3rd shot.

                The elusive "do everything great for $1200" rifle does not exist.

                Pick your importance:
                "Extreme accuracy over 10 rounds in 60 seconds" or "Easy to carry all day".
                The two are mutually exclusive.

At least I hope not because even a .300 win mag and a 200 grain bullet will only deliver about 400 ft-lbs of energy at that distance. I'm not sure that's enough for an ethical kill and I wouldn't want to start tracking a critter with that big a lead.
                      Thank you for giving me the credit of not hunting elk at 1200 yards. I would never attempt this.

                        Lol. Thankfully Randall, I am not part of the question. The question assumes a capable Marksman. Lol.

                            Well now, this simplification of the question is in the 10 Ring.
                            How heavy do you suppose we have to go?

                              I didn't say I could do it, he, OP, asked for a rifle that could. The Remington 700 CDL in .30-06, 7mm-08 can get him there within the weight he desires.

                              Google Remington 700 CDL 1,200 yard shot. Plenty of YouTube video's. IF it can be done once it can be done over again and IF there is anyone that can make the shot the rifle will work.

                                Seems like this rifle might have a shot at fulfilling the requirements;

                                Do you crave handmade craftsmanship? Do you want a rifle built specifically for you, built for your needs, and with a level of quality that is evident the moment it touches your hands? Are you the type who hones your skills until your confidence is unwavering and your actions are second nature? If you need a gun that is an extension of your mind, body, and soul, then a Bergara Custom is the rifle for you.


                                Although it is 9 1/2 pounds and around $1,500.
