[QUOTE="CanadianLefty, post: 32162, member: 2194"] Thanks- I actually have a .300WSM, 24" barreled Savage Weather Warrior-Model 16--I have been very successful with it up to 400 yards on game. I need to practice more with it as I want to consistently hit 10" paper pie plates out to 800 yards (max. distance at shooting range available to me). My rifle system currently shoots .75-1MOA out to 400 yards. The reason why I ask about these cartridges? I am planning ahead for when I want to ge another rifle [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]I may want to experiment with something more powerful later on... To answer your question on the lower end bullet weights- I plan on using any one of these cartridges at a MAX. of 800 yards- that to me is considered extreme range [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img](at least until I practice more and hang out at this forum [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img] )--as a result, I do not feel a need to go for any heavier weights (please corect me if I am wrong). A semi or full custom rifle will take another year to build and I do not plan on ordering one for at least 6 months. Thus, I have another 2 seasons of lead time to improve my skills. Thanks for helping me out! [/QUOTE]
