[QUOTE="Long Time Long Ranger, post: 422340, member: 505"] The 338 win mag is going to be your closest bet. Your parameters are just above the 338 win mag unless you had a very fast or a long barrel. The 340 wby is the next step up but it is closer to the ultramags and you would be loading it down to reach those velocities. You said most efficient so you wouldn't want to load the 340 wby down a couple hundred fps. A hot 338 win mag is the closest to what you want to do. The necked up short mags can't get there. The 338 win mag is an excellent cartridge that is easily capable to near a half mile and a great choice for an all around rifle. [/QUOTE]
