[QUOTE="Kennibear, post: 899413, member: 51650"] memtb Welcome to LRH! Don't kid yourself, most people with 16+ pound rifles don't carry them far afield much less up and down mountains! This thread has evolved into two factions, better than what we have and we need the very best. Each proponent believes they have the market share to do it. I believe we combine our needs and push for both. I want a 300 grain or slightly less better technology high BC bullet for every day hunting. I would very much be in the market for something heavier as I have found "bigger is better" when it gets up close and personal. I would gladly use a 350 gr pill at close range at the reduced velocity my 375 Ruger generates to insure complete penetration. Like Tikka's Dad says, holes on both sides! Having read most of the 375 stuff on this website the 350 SMK stabilizes fine in 1-12 twist so there really isn't an argument of usability in the smaller cases of a high BC bullet up around 350 grains. From a makers stand point changing nose punches and maybe boat tail punches is easy. So what ever the finished weight better to stay with modified existing designs. Speer has been swamped with demand but I wonder if they could also be persuaded to bring out something better? KB [/QUOTE]
