Probably as many as you've shot with 338 or bigger. I'm not challenging anyone. How many times do I have to paise the 338??? But for...

The point is that 308 or lesser caliber is entirely adequate to take large game including elk to 1000 yards or beyond. So what use is...

I see what @fruitnut is getting at. It certainly is the trend right now.

All very true. But Berger recently came out with a 375 410 grain hybrid target with G7 bc of 0.475 vs about 0.42 for the 300 gr 338...

The Apex afterburners had very good low velocity performance. That's encouraging. I won't be shooting at the long distances where...

They must have big deer in Iowa. Way overkill for deer in my book unless you just like recoil and rainbow trajectory. A 358 of the...

If you get it throated right and the magazine and action are long enough then yes you could seat bullets in the 270 just like the 6.8...

740 yards and a moving target. Now that's impressive. Beautiful country and story, congratulations..!! What area is that in? It is...

I've got some loaded up and waiting on a new shooting rest to try them out. I'm about 0.03 off the lands. That's about as close as I can...
