[QUOTE="ZAR LRH, post: 1029781, member: 86870"] I'm busy with my first LR hunting rifle specifically for african game up to eland and zebra up to 1200m. I'm currently only considering either a 300 in WSM, RUM, Norma Mag or a 338 in EDGE or Lapua. The 338 is the logical choice but the 300 is the more practical one given the bullets and powder we currently have at our disposal. Bullet selection for me currently is one if not the main consideration. Given experience, what bullet would you guys design such a LR hunting rifle around for distances between lets say 800-1200m and if you don't mind why? Bergers, SMK, Nosler LR AB, Hornady Amax or perhaps something else? [/QUOTE]
