[QUOTE="orifdoc, post: 2167220, member: 115070"] I play in Africa from time to time. The .30s reign supreme for plains game. The nice folks over there tend to favor big, heavy bullets and long-range is rarely a consideration. That skews my thoughts a bit. For actual long-range hunting in the US I still like my .300 WM. The 7mm might be theoretically a bit better beyond 800 yards or so, but the difference isn’t all that great and I would only shoot at animals that far if everything was perfect. [/QUOTE]
