[QUOTE="Broz, post: 549796, member: 7503"] Wanted to add. I went through the same thing when I was building this rifle. The huge debate between 7mm and 300. I like them both and have become very fond of the 7mm / 300 wins. I have built. In fact, I have a new Hart 7mm barrel on hand in case I get bored. But I hunt elk, and wanted this rifle to be good for up to elk size game to 1000 yards, and with Berger 210's it is. The 7mm 180's will probably do just as well but I like larger bullets for the energy they carry with them. Plus the deciding factor for me was a quote from one of the most popular barrel makers in the us. In asking him his advice about which was more accurate at 1000 yds, a 7mm or 300, he said. "Well,,,,,,, I haven't seen the 7mm take over the 1000 yard matches yet and the 300 has been setting records for years." Food for thought. Jeff [/QUOTE]
