[QUOTE="VLD Pilot, post: 2116210, member: 103947"] Beyond 2200-2300 yards, my choice would easily be 375s and up. The 338s work out to 2500 but it's getting iffy in wind and seeing hits. Besides seeing your hits/misses, beyond 2300 +/- yards, you'll need a heavier bullet. Pushing the .375s as fast as the 338 LM improved pushes the 300s really helps when you get past 1.5 miles. I'm happy with 2K being my maximum range. I'd be building a 375 if I shot much further. That's a rifle I just can't justify for how much I'd shoot it. [/QUOTE]
