[QUOTE="nralifer, post: 2783101, member: 94556"] Well. With a .308 150 gr Badlands Precision BD2 bullet and SRP brass using LVR power from a 1:10 24” barrel can do anything that Weatherby can do for far less than $5/shot with much less recoil and with readily available brass. Even large rifle primer brass can be used. I use this recipe all the time. I get 3050 fps with only 49 gr of LVR and with 50 gr, it’s going faster. The G7=0.264, better than that 185 gr bullet and far better than the 175 gr .338 bullet (G7=0.198). I find hunting rifles with 28” barrels are clumsy because of the length of the barrel. Getting in and out of boats or vehicles and walking through thick brush is problematic. [/QUOTE]
