[QUOTE="desertcj, post: 1133774, member: 22225"] I don't know how much experience you have shooting at "long range". My opinion is that 1000yds IS reaching out and touching them! Also, I am in the same boat as you with a 24" 7mm rem mag that is waiting to be a dedicated long range rifle. It's going to remain a 7mm rem mag, but it will be getting a 28" barrel along with a brake so I can spot my shots more easily. I would not be too worried about going with a 1 in 9 twist barrel vs a 1 in 8 twist. I don't think the 7 rem mag can push anything over 180 grain fast enough to beat the 160-180 grain pills(Diminishing returns). The larger cases can really smoke with the new Berger 195. [/QUOTE]
