[QUOTE="pockets380, post: 550852, member: 30350"] I am really wanting to do a long range build and can't decide what to do. I'm really considering building off of an existing rifle or wondering if I should just start over. I have a Remington 700 chambered in 300 weatherby. I think pretty much the only thing I would keep is the action. I am considering a brux chrome moly barrel as the action is blued and I think stainless would look weird. Also I'm not sure on barrel length. I'm getting a half inch group at 100yds now with a Berger 210 handload. I havent ran it through a chrono but according to some other data I've compared I think it's around 2905 fps. I would like it a bit faster. I'm wanting to put a huskemaw on top and with those numbers I can't quite make a 1000yds on the turret. Any thoughs or recomendations would be appreciated! I forgot to mention I'm going to use it mainly for deer and elk hunting. [/QUOTE]
