[QUOTE="mgood, post: 1220144, member: 91188"] Barrel I just got for my 6.5 Sherman Shortmag build is 1:8. Planning to shoot 143 gr ELD-X On your action, I'd be looking at a 26 Nos or 28 Nos. I'm sure you can kill an elk with a 22 LR under the right circumstances, but I'd prefer 7mm on up. So 28 Nos or 7mm STW. Or since you have a 300 and a 338, you could hit right between the two with an 8mm Rem Mag.:D Not what you're going for, I know. [/QUOTE]
