Is your friend going to try to shoot game at 1000 yards? There are many, almost any better choices for killing non-predators/varmints. Accubonds, Hammers, TTSX, Partition, Scirocco, GMX, just to name a few.
Price of quality end rifle rig - $3,500.00
Price of outfitted Elk Hunt - $10,000.00
People trusting in a 5 cent match bullet on above mentioned hunt with above mentioned rifle - Ridiculous. Oh, priceless.
With a well built gun like he's got it shouldn't be too tough to find or work up an accurate load with a quality bullet. He will most likely get a shot inside 300 yards anyway, and then what kind of trouble might he have?
