[QUOTE="hawkhunts, post: 345502, member: 22024"] Absolutely my favorite cartridge. This rifle has never let me, or any of the others that have borrowed it, down. I have lasered one shot kills at 697 yds. on pronghorns, 512 on a klipspringer in Zimbabwe, and shot a rock rabbit in Zim so far away the trackers refused to go get it. They didn't believe anything could be killed that far away! My son killed a whitetail, drt, at 70 yards this year with it. It performs on both ends of the spectrum. I've never had issues with performance up close. Ballistic Tips make lungs into jello! Based on the performance with this rifle, I have friends who have converted to the 257 roy, and have not looked back. If the allure of high BC bullets wasn't calling (6.5 mm/7mm), I'd probably build another to have when my son steals mine. [/QUOTE]
