[QUOTE="dkhunt14, post: 1044167, member: 14053"] I agree the 250 is better to 1000 but a lot of shooting we do is at 1500 plus and the 300 is better. Also I like the bullet to pass through no matter what it runs into. I also believe hanging a 36 inch barrel on a Weatherby action is not what I would do. If you use a 36 inch barrel it needs to be heavy or the heat will make it walk all over. When we use 36 inch barrels we use 1.450 diameter and glue them in a barrel block. There is nothing wrong with the choice of 338-378. I just like my Lapua Imp better because of the Lapua brass. I can get 3100 plus with a 300 so they are about equal. Matt [/QUOTE]
