[QUOTE="Sheldon Root, post: 1796685, member: 112458"] Well for most of my years it was untilitarian so as to put meat on the table. However now most my shooting is playing around with long range target shooting. I have had a few custom units built over the years to really reach out there. At this time I have only gone so far as 600 yds. and managed to get normal groups in the 2-2.5". Still room for improvement I know. This is a custom build, 338/378 pushing 300 gr. Bergers or Sierra hunting rounds. They both do well in this unit. I would only use this for stand hunting or horse trips into big grizz. country as it is pretty hefty and would not make a good mountain trekking unit. When my son and I do make it up into the mountains I use a Wby 300 loaded with 200 gr Barnes and run them hot. Only problem with them is they blow out big hunks of hide and meat under 300 yds.
