[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 544319, member: 30902"] Brad I went through many of the same gyrations and thought processes you are here. When I weighed everything out I went with the .300 Rum. There's nothing on the continent it's not more than suitable for at 1,000-1,200yds and if I can't work myself into that range I should probably give up hunting altogether. If I planned to go to AK to shoot a big bear or Moose at those ranges I'd work up a .220gr load especially for that purpose, and for everything else the 180-208's have more than enough power and ballistic capability to do the job. Another plus if you just want to have fun shooting varmints at long range you can always load up some 168 vld's for some high speed long range fun. [/QUOTE]
