[QUOTE="Michael Eichele, post: 601711, member: 1007"] My vote goes for either the 338RUM or 338Edge. Whatever the 7mm or 300 can do, the 338's can do better except for trajectory. Who cares? LRF's solve that problem. With the up and coming 300 grain ACCUBOND, the big 338's are now in a whole new class. The Bergers are OK and the SMK are OK for hunting but the 300 grain ACCUBONDS will be stellar for hunting. The best you can do in an ACCUBOND for the 300 is 200 grains which sports a so-so BC. It is a good combo but the 338/300 grain AB will be a grand slam in all catagories. This and with better barrel life. The real downside here is recoil, which can be managed. You will also get higher velocities with the 338 versus the 7mm or 300 when using equal bullet weights and barrel lengths. Meaning, you can use a shorter barrel and still beat the 7's and 300's.
