[QUOTE="younggun, post: 424274, member: 26865"] I hate to sound so indecisive...but i kind of am and all the new info is great but it definately changes my decision. i was just snooping around a little on other threads here on LRH and i found one where Kirby Allen was working on 7mm rounds [[URL]http://www.longrangehunting.com/forums/f19/7mm-vs-7stw-vs-7rum-33134/[/URL]]. long story short he said if you handload the plain old 7mm rem mag you can easily out perform the 7mm wsm and saum. obviously the rem mag falls short of the stw which falls short of the rum but all things considered i am going to be reloading and i can get the savage 111 long range hunter in 7mm mag from the get go and start customizing from there. is this a good starting point? like i said this is based off of info known at the moment if you guys see a fallacy in my logic or choices at all PLEASE let me know!!! and just throwing it out there as well what kind of scopes would you recommend? i would like (fingers crossed) adjustable zoom and parallax adjustment but those are more bells and whistles then neccessities. any prefferences? are leupald, night force, us optics good choices if so which ones? would you go in MOA or mils? i cant thank you guys enough for all the imput so far it really means alot and ive been learning so much so fast its great...but it will be better when im posting pics of those 1/2 moa groups with the gun you guys helped design sitting right next to it :D [/QUOTE]
