[QUOTE="jrock, post: 1904850, member: 78569"] I set my limit at about 500 to 600 yards. I like the 1000 ft*lbs of energy as a minimum number with good velocities. One episode of Extreme Outer Limits, they shot a antelope with a 338. I've wondered about this myself. If it was super windy with long shots, I would op for the 338 for the BC. I would take the .243 8 out of 10 times. I built a 6.5 SAUM for longer winder shots over the .243...actually I shoot the Dasher now. [/QUOTE]
