[QUOTE="Buffalobob, post: 85686, member: 8"] If you are planning on shooting deer at 1500 yds that is one gun. If you are planning on shooting elk at 1500 yds the list grows very small. If you value your shoulder joints, the list gets even smaller. For 1500yds and on the 338s are going to win any killing contest but you pay for it in recoil. Guns I have considered for elk up to but not beyond 1500 yds. 7mm AM w bullet weigth of 175gr or more 30-378Wby w 220 or 240 SMKs 338-378 Wby and 338- 416Imp (I am much too wimpy to shoot the big 338 cartridges) There are other 338s ( thunder Khan, etc) that will do the job I just am not a 338 fan because of the recoil issue and do not keep track of them. There is a 300 Tomahawk which I believe is a Improved 300 Rum and is slightly slower than the 30-378. You got no email addrerss in your profile. If you put one there I will send you some of my stuff.
