[QUOTE="liltank, post: 381278, member: 13275"] Being a hand loader, My choice would be the 300WSM with a 200+ grain bullet atop RL17 or H4350. You will be able to push a 208-210 grain bullet to 2950+ (26"+ barrel) fps that will give you a lot of stopping power at 800, but could extend that to 1000 or so yards. At altitude for Elk you could extend that to 1200yrds. So that is my thought. The 7RM is going to be close, but the farther you go the 7mm losses its retained energy but maintains speed, where you get the opposite from the 300WSM. Tank [/QUOTE]
