[QUOTE="Autorotate, post: 424906, member: 8073"] LTLR-I certainly defer to your and others more experienced on these big bores...as I've only got 3-4 years at this LR thing vs. others on this board. But I do try and actually shoot just as much as I can at distance. I agree with you on the point of the Excalibur being suited to longer barrel lengths, and certainly alluded to that previously, but just to recap... given a 28" barrel, the Lapua case seems like a better fit for sure. This would seem to be a [URL="http://www.longrangehunting.com/forums/f53/mcr-338-378-weatherby-60495/"]good template for 10.5 lb carry rifle[/URL]..., put a 225/250 NAB on top of a bunch of Retumbo/H1000/Ramshot Magnum, and call it good for anything in NA under a 1/2 mile. I think you've built a bunch of these type rifles if I recall correctly....338/378s pushing Gamekings/Accubonds/Partitions fast and flat. And that's the second point I agree with you on....10.5 lbs and one mile I believe are two goals opposed to each other. But that's the fun part of this I'm sure for this build...is getting all the components/specs of the build to compliment to the goals of the rifle! [/QUOTE]
