[QUOTE="hicap223, post: 22728, member: 548"] No offense taken at all, just trying to learn what will do what, (GREENHORN) coupled with the fact that all of the ballitic tables that I have only go to 400 yds. (rather pathetic I know). My reasoning was simply this, I have read that the .308 is used to win shooting matches out to 1000yds. The 7mm mag has quite a bit more umphh than the .308, thus, must be better out to that distance(ridiculous as it may sound, thats my reasoning) I have owned and operated a Win M70 sporter in 7mm mag w/Leupold VX III 3.5X10 for about 10 or so yrs. I never "broke it in" I just put in some shells and blew the stink off of it. My furthest shot so far has been about 325 yds. Sighting in off the hood of a pickup using a coat as a bag I ususally get 2in groups at 100yds. I have been interested in long distance shooting for about as long but haven't pursued it until the bug hit a few months ago. I do reload, but would not consider myself any sort of GURU.
