[QUOTE="jshepherd61, post: 2125662, member: 93960"] Fastest and hardest 30 cal hitter is the 30-378 weatherby magnum. Read the articles on what it was designed for and was purpose built to originally be the military’s ultimate sniper rifle for 1,200 or to + 2,000 yds. Original goal was to push a 200 gr 212gr to 4,200 fps. Came close. 200gr at 4,000 fps but barrel life is horrendous. I can get 500 quality shots pushing a 210gr ABLR at 3,627 fps before rebarreling. I’m running a 29” barrel. [/QUOTE]
