[QUOTE="Guest, post: 62640"] OK straight answers... you said 800 yards and elk... and you mentioned cost... and it seems weight is a bit of concern... forget the Lazz.. the brass is outrageous and $$ is a factor... the carbon barrels also get a little pricy as well... you are gonna need heavy bullets for 800 yard Elk... so now you are talking 190 gr + and you are gonna need 1000-1200 ft. lbs to do it effectivly... so you walked youself out of the WSM ... but you still don't need the RUM.... narrowing your choices down quite a bit... answer is simple.... Rem 700 Long Action... #6 fluted broughton 10 twist 26" barrel ( I prefer a break but you may not ) McMillan Stock ( Sako Varminter or HTG ) teflon coated in a OD green or Milspec OD green ( dull colors ) your caliber... 300 Win Mag.
