[QUOTE="ELR Researcher, post: 754299, member: 19541"] OK...then I'd suggest either the 338 Edge or the 375 CT. The first will probably be the best trade-off for overall cost and capability, the latter will probably be the best for pure performance (save for going to the cutting edge with something like the 375 VM2). 338 Edge - "standard" action (standard magnum bolt face) with tons of options; tons of barrels and all the bits and pieces from the rifle side to the reloading side; on the "con" side, you will not be stretching much beyond 1500 before you are looking for more performance (IMHO). 375 CT - only a few actions will accept this size cartridge, all are reasonably expensive (save for the Barker which is an excellent product and effectively dirt cheap for what you are getting); barrels need to be relatively long to get the best results which adds cost for a longer rifle case; as best I know, there are only four US sources for brass (none cheap). On the "pro" side, very hard to find a higher performance solution. [/QUOTE]
