[QUOTE="DIDYSIS, post: 512217, member: 26388"] So I have a savage 300wm love the rifle but really like the bullet coefficientness of the 7mm bullet plus they do have as much or more energy at 1000 yards. I have been very good at over 500 yards with this rifle. First do I go with a standard 7mm or one of it bigger brothers. Second do I buy a glitery nice remington sendero or build a bull barrel setup on what I have now. Seems cost prob about the same as a new stock and barrel would be needed. I don't want to put a muzzle break on it at all. The 300 does not bother me unless I shoot it allot. I know a heavier rifle will cut down the kick. I target shoot a good amount. I hunt mule deer and trying to get into elk. Just didn't get a tag yet this year. As with target shootig long distance I want to make sure the bullet will be good out to 1000. Yards. Ya I know isn't going to happen prob at all since most deer are shot around 200. But I want to make sure I can if I get the chance. I shot a 7mm sendero which was amazing and figure it will give me over 1000ft/lb of energy at 1000.yards with a Berger 168 or 180. Then I can shoot amax162 or sierra match kings 180gr for play. Yes the 7stw looks great but at more cost of shooting and really more power more kick. Guess I could start with the regular 7mm then see what I decide latter. Also no point at destroying good eating food. I shot a little deer with the 300 this year and he was almost gone with the 165gr hornady SST bullet I used. I would recomend that bullet to anyone. They are amazing. [/QUOTE]
