[QUOTE="jhendri2, post: 51638, member: 217"] I agree wtih boyd on the 338 RUM, the Lapua is worth a look also. Just a word about over-kill though. I don't believe there is such a thing. How do you over-kill something, I thought dead was dead? [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img] For the meat destruction arguement, I normally don't eat the ribs anyway and if I happen to hit the shoulder then so be it, I still have the hams and loins [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img] . My brother used his Lapua (we bought consecutively serial #'d models) on a jack rabbit hunt a couple of years ago and it worked great. The jacks and racoons died just as if they had been hit with a 22-250 [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] . I think the 338 is [B]one[/B] of the best calibers around. My two cents worth anyway.
