[QUOTE="Spanners, post: 257770, member: 13768"] So to cut a long story short, forget anythign bigger that 338/408 as at the moment as the pills arn't up to scratch?? A few questions.. quite a few. :) Is anyone seeing 300 SMKs to 3500fps reliably with ANY barrel life similar to that described by 50Driver? 50 - when you state 6-900 rounds of 'accuracy' what is the expected accuracy, and when it 'falls off' to what extent and how quickly? Is it the 1st 3 inches of throat that is rooted, or is the whole barrel toast? I;m looking at a receiver.. its single loader, no ejector, and weighs 58oz... would like something that is a bit lighter if possible and a repeater... aiming for a 11-14 lb rifle less scope etc if achievable. Whats a nice cost effective option given the arse in our exchange rate? All the different 338/408 wildcats, are there any 'actual' differences other than a couple of thou here and there in the reamer prints to make them 'different'? Cheers! :) [/QUOTE]
