[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 974397, member: 48043"] It (the 26nos) should be a heck of a round if you watch how many rounds you run through the rifle. I want one but at present I'd likely have to sell a kidney to afford one. I'm not broke but not in the big ticket rifle game either at present; if rem, tikka, or win chambered it in lh ss I'd be on it like a cat on catnip. You don't need more than the 120-140 grain bullet range to cleanly kill most of what I hunt so the bigger than 30 cal rifles are more than is really needed. A bigger hole will sure drop critters faster, but why do you need 300 grains of bullet to knock down a 200# critter? [/QUOTE]
