[QUOTE="Ernie, post: 175669, member: 13"] The 7-08 will do it to 400, but since it looks like you are willing to rebarrel I would consider cartridges based off of the 284 Win case (6-284, 25-284, 6.5-284, and the 284 Win itself) to get you to that goal easily and have some room leftover. The 284 Win cartridge & it family in 16-17" barrels you will basically get the same performance you would with cartridges chambered in rifle length barrels based off of the 308 cartridge ( 243 win, 25 Souper, 260 Rem, etc). One of Holland's or Carlock's brakes will turn the recoil into basically nothing. I use rifle scopes more and more with these kind of brakes. [/QUOTE]
