[QUOTE="MontanaMarine, post: 23832, member: 268"] Bountyhunter, In regards to shooting the 300WSM at deer at 600 yards, I do not understand what is impractical about dialing in 14 minutes of elevation, making a wind call, and hammering the target. I've made headshots on a human sillouette at 600yards with a lowly .308/168SMK, about 16 MOA up, and punched 5 shots into a 4" cluster. It seems a quite simple task compared to cranking up 55MOA or thereabouts, and making the right wind call, to hit a target at 1800 yards with a 240SMK at 3200fps MV. A laser would be a given, for me, to shoot a deer at 600, regardless of caliber choice. You lost me with your correlation between a 300WSM/240grSMK and a .22 rimfire, for a 600 yard shot.
