[QUOTE="ndking1126, post: 2209991, member: 26820"] I like it. I once made an excel spreadsheet that calculated a weighted score based on my priorities and the ballistics of each round. (Ex, I gave a higher priority to lower recoil than all out power since it was going to be a deer rifle). It was posted on a different forum. I may dig it up for old time sakes. My inner nerd definitely came out while making it. 🤣 Another thought is that I pick the cartridge without consideration for the gun, scope, etc. In my opinion, the cartridge and bullet is the tail that wags the dog. Figure out the cartridge and then worry about the rest. Id guess we have a higher-than-average number of custom built guns in this community, so we can get what we want. The study actually swayed my opinion, too. It had a few surprises I wasn't expecting. It wasn't at all a waste of time. [/QUOTE]
