[QUOTE="Hand Skills, post: 1369879, member: 103303"] Just because nobody's mentioned it; 300 WSM When considering energy delivery, at say 1000yd; per grain of powder, I don't think it gets any better than this. Especially if a long throated long action is used. Taking into account barrel life, brass life etc - well, I haven't done a cost benefit analysis, but I feel like it's tough to beat the 300WSM slinging ~200gr at ~3000fps We are allowed 2 entries. While I've never tried one, the OP brought up voting with our dollars; I propose the 7mm Sherman Short is commercially the most under appreciated design of our day. 180gr @ 3000fps in a true short action. Can it get any more elegant than that? [/QUOTE]
