[QUOTE="mconwa951, post: 396659, member: 20886"] Thanks for the advice guys i am new to the entire scene of rifle hunting last year was the first year I ever killed anythig with a rifle and it was a couple of antelope in SD. With the kids it is to hard and time consuming to dedicate the time I use to bowhunting and extending my range to extend my success was the reason for picking up a rifle. Now I am hooked on the long range stuff. This will be the first load I ever hand load as well I have read tons of books watched tons of videos and am fairly comfortable that it doesn't look hard and seems like almost anybody can do it. So obviosly i am gonna start low and work up to the suggested loads that berger recomends and also play with COAL as suggested by them I was given two full boxes of 210 gr bergers by a friend that picked them up by accident trying to get 185s so I am gonna use them. I guess call it ignorance but really had no Idea that this caliber and load could carry that kind of energy out that far I am really quit happy to know that this isn't the way to small gun others are telling me it is for moose. Thanks again and any advice is greatly appreciated. Mike [/QUOTE]
