[QUOTE="Bart B, post: 618594, member: 5302"] Kevin, that's the best statement I've come across for case size vs. long range accuracy. Very well stated. I've oft times suggested folks wanting good long range accuracy for shoulder fired rifles is to pick the one with the least recoil that delivers acceptable down range ballistics. My reasoning has been based on their being easier to shoot accurate more consistantly. The rifle shooting them moves less while the bullet's going down the barrel. Without perfect follow through, the muzzle will be pointing a bit off from where it should be to put the bullet exactly on the aiming point. While there's always great accuracy claims for really big cases, they're typically the very best a case has done. The worst, or what accuracy they produce and therefore count on all the time, is rarely, if ever mentioned. [/QUOTE]
