[QUOTE="Creedmoor shooter, post: 1361943, member: 72601"] So I have the opportunity to pick up a savage 111 in 300 win mnag for 150 bucks. I've decided to build a long range hunting rifle in a 7mm cal to shoot 180s. The cartridges I'm considering are 280AI, 7mm SAUM, and 7mm rem mag. I'm open to other suggestions but I don't want some powder hungry beast that I can't afford to shoot. Id like the rifle to come in at about 10 lbs scoped. I will be adding a muzzle brake as well. Hunting distances up to 600-700 yards on medium game and targets up to 1500-1600 yards. Looking for pros and cons of these cartridges and looking for suggestions. [/QUOTE]
