[QUOTE="chris matthews, post: 45524, member: 66"] John Burns is using a modified 7 STW and have seen him take one shot kills out to 1000 on elk with it. Past that I would opt for a 300 RUM or the 338 Lapua. The Cauterucio 7mm 176 has a BC of .750, I don't think the 240 gr 30 cal is that high. Energy does play into it but I believe shot placement is the most important thing. The 300 RUM is a little bit flatter than the 7 WSM at 1000. Haven't compared it to the 7 RUM yet. But the big thing is the 7mm RUM won't beat you up as much as the 300 RUM or the 338 Lapua. The best way to beat the Lapua is to neck up the 300 RUM and ackley improve it. The 300 RUM is a bigger case than the 338 RUM. [/QUOTE]
