[QUOTE="300WSMMAD, post: 297424, member: 11709"] I have to agree with LongtimeRanger on this. It would have to be an very very well placed shot @ 1000 yrds with it. It will put a hole in it, yes, but I would rather put a bigger hole in it and hit the animal with a truck load more energy just in case the shot aint as perfect as you would have liked. This is why on a recent hunting trip I opted for my 300 WSM over my 708, pleased I did, in blustry 20MPH + conditions I got a yearling red hind at 430 yrds, it nicked the front shoulder and put her down, the 708 would not have done that, I guess it would have got a way with a nasty flesh wound and died much later, BUT the 708 still has enough energy at that range to kill, WITH A WELL PLACED SHOT!! but in my experience "the perfect shot" is a rare event. Just my 2c 300WSMMAD [/QUOTE]
