[QUOTE="lgray88, post: 270659, member: 16608"] i understand where you are coming from meichele, but ive been under the impression that its not jsut purely the speed of a round that burns barrel , but the use of the rifle fireing several round with no sufficient cooling of the barrel between shots.i not a 100% sure on velocitys of the .338LM for example a charge of 86.2 grains of accurate 3100 and a 250gr nosler partition bullet only produces a a velocity of 2942 fps , i didna think that was in the range of burning teritory. couldnt i try pushing out with the .22-250 for the meantime , i know its not a 1k weapon but 600 yards is doable that would get me somwhere. as for the user friendliness , im a big lad and i use a 12bore quite often , dont get me wrong though i have no idea off the brutality of this weapon could someone compare it too somethin it maybe similar too ,with and without a muzzlebrake So far ive got my dell axim , i just went for a base model should be ok i hope. ive got a harris 6-9 inch swivel bipod, but no anemometer i wasnt reaslising those kestrel ones where so expensive is there anything other manufacturers i can look too? many thanks liam [/QUOTE]
