[QUOTE="LDHunter, post: 3075646, member: 105"] I had a 30-378 Weatherby that was a lot of fun. It easily printed inside of .6" at 100yds with Nosler 180gr BT's. I don't remember the FPS those bullets left the barrel at but it was crazy. Used it as a target and prairie dog rifle and never shot it at a game animal but would have had to use more appropriate bullets at that velocity. I cooked the barrel in just a few hundred rounds even with cooling it completely between shots. Sold it to a guy in Colorado that wanted to hunt elk with it and never heard from him again but did warn him that accuracy was starting to erode due to throat erosion. Other than that rifle I've never been a super magnum kind of guy. [/QUOTE]
