[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 599257, member: 1521"] It started off egg shooting at 300-400yds, and none of the cartridges you were considering are suited for that. The discussion departed to 1kyd potential, which is the wrong direction for maximum potential -up close. An excellent hunting gun(like a Cooper), given it's stock and trigger, misses maximum potential up close. It doesn't have a BR stock & trigger(which are impractical for hunting). That's where Savage target in 6br comes in, and NOT in tight twists with long range bullets. You should take a deep breath and really focus on what you want to do. Think bullets. That's where it all starts: -Bullet -Capacity to drive the bullet -Metal(action/barrel/trigger/dies/brass) for the cartridge, for that bullet -Stock suiting the bullet's purpose, and management of recoil caused by launching of that bullet -Scope for bullet's purpose -Ballistic realities so far, given that bullet -Start over with another bullet until you've got a plan that works [/QUOTE]
