[QUOTE="Death Ray 7, post: 195521, member: 4188"] V 911 - So I design the rifle around the 7mm Rem Mag and a handload for the 162gr Amax or the 168gr Bergers. If I had to settle for a factory load of 140gr or 160gr Partition/Accubond, I'm still in good shape. Good thinking! I'm just thinking worst case scenario; if your rifles arrive at the airport but your clothes and ammo don't, you can always buy new camo and ammunition at the local Wal-Mart. This would probably change the parameters of the hunt from a long range hunt to a 300-350 yard max. (and obviously you would have to verify point of impact / bullet drop for the new load), but at least you're still hunting. I was just trying to take advantage of the popularity of the big three?/five? (.270 .30-06 .308 .300 Win Mag 7mm Rem Mag) and the availability of factory ammunition, while trying to wring the most performance I could. Anybody else? [/QUOTE]
