*****Pacific North West Clear Cut Elk/Deer Rifle Components*****

Google Earth tells me that one of my residences now has clear cuts close by. Like many pock marked area's and from the map scale most look 400 to 500 yards from side to side.
At the moment neither the wife and I possess any dedicated long range hunting rifles.
Other than 338 Lapua which the brass is nut-so priced were looking at a couple of Winchester Model 70 Extreme Weather Stainless "Control Round Feed" 7MM Magums I have only shot the 7MM Mag a few times but noticed it certainly has a quicker sharper recoil than most other rifles.
Holland Muzzle Brakes which we find work very well would be incorporated.
For optics were looking 30MM Leupold 4X16X50MM and and a BDC.
Ethical shot clause would certainly be factored in and would certainly pass on anything over 500 yards.
A state of the art range finder would accompany the rifles to assist in humane dispatching.
For projectile selection we were pondering either 168gr SMK's which they use exclusively at Huskemaw Optics/Rifle Company or Barnes 175gr TSX.
Please post what you have used in shooting across clear cuts.
