I have not shot any of the Barnes 7mm bulets but I have shot a number in the 308 diamiter. The accuracy depends on the rifle. It seems that the solid coper creats a differnt pressure in many guns. The triple shock was created to deal with some of these issues. Weatherby loads the regular X...

The 200gr Accubond has a high advertised BC (.588). I have had good luck with them as far as accuracy in my gun. I don't know if anyone else has had luck though.

It is part of who I am. I began hunting as a small kid with my dad. I have always hunted - it is a part of my biography. There is an honesty to it. I am very proud I do not buy meat at the store - I do not pay someone else to "do my dirty work" for me. I kill, butcher,and wrap my own meat. A...

Everyone is on the money. I look for the ears to be about the size of the prong sticking out - if it is or really close shoot - it is in the 15-16" range. I say I look for this - but I have only found it once during the season. Good luck. Antelope are really fun to hunt! I have been going since...

Well, I like my 300WBY, but it is a custom job so I was able to control for alot. It shoots .35 groups at 100yds consistantly. I don't like the Remington - because then you are stuck with remington brass, which I have not found to be good. I do like the 300UM, but I just would like to have...

I have had good results from 200 gr Accubonds out of my 300wby - it also likes 180gr XBT XLC - it shoots the Barnes .4 to .5 MOA, the accubond is more in the .3 range. I think the Accubond could do even better - I just am not sure if I can!

I think you are good either direction. I use my 300WBY for everything, antelope, deer, elk... I think the 300 is a little more versitile - but only a little. The 338 is a great gun and for elk I think it is hard to beat. One thing to take into consideration is the bullet. A 338 will push a...

I live in Montana, and on the east side of the divide there can be some strong winds, so you may want heavy for caliber bullets with a high BC. I would say a good .308 cal would be fine for deer at long range. You wouldn't need to shoot anything at 1K, if you didn't want to. There are alot of...
