[QUOTE="SOUTHTEXASBOY, post: 1132543, member: 91328"] I have a stock Remington 700 adl in a 7mm rem mag that I converted to a bdl with B&C M40 stock, timney trigger, and vortex pst 6-24x50 sitting on top. I am wanting to rebarrel it after this hunting season, I have a pretty good load worked up for the 168 Bergers right now using 69 grains of h1000 getting right at 2900fps shooting 1/2 inch groups at 100 yards. I want to shoot the 168 and 180 Bergers 500-1500 yards at everything from coyotes to mule deer and maybe some elk one day. I can't decide if I should stick with the 7rm or go to something else like 7mm-300, 7stw, 7rum, 7lrm or anything else. I do like to shoot steel and practice so I don't want something that's going to burn a barrel up too too fast and I also want the gains in MV to out weight the cost to reload or the amount of powder used to get there . What do you guys think I should do? What barrel manufacturers would you stick with, length and contour would also help. Thanks [/QUOTE]
