[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 851540, member: 13632"] Inside it's range it is astounding, I've dug out 458 300 gr soft hollow points from elk that are the size of a silver dollar and it looks like you literally lift the elk of the ground and slam them down but that same rifle is not nearly as impressive outside it ideal range once you start just knocking holes through them. That rifle was an absolute show stopper but my 338 makes it look lame out past about 800 yards. What would your 375 bring at 1500 yards that would benefit me over a 338, I've absolutely tried to get an advantage with the 375 but just having a bigger diameter bullet don't cut it. Wind is the major fight at ELR and it's one thing I would really need to see a benefit in to step up to the 375 in a RUM class case for ELR shooting! I can almost get there with a Lapua case but even then it's a very small advantage and only with $2 a pop bullets. [/QUOTE]
