[QUOTE="budlight, post: 1016516, member: 2939"] I went through two barrels and was going to install my third and the logical choice to make the 30-378 barrels last longer was to increase the caliber size. The 338-378 is the best choice. The person I sold it to took my advice and made it a 338. As to hunting with the 30-378 I used 210 BT's gr. They cause blow throughs even on big elk. For target shooting I always used 220 and 240 VLD. Because of barrel life you have to just perfect a couple of bullet weights. Retumbo for 210's and US869 for the heavies. I had the 28 inch barrels and two inch brake [/QUOTE]
