[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 2342601, member: 87243"] As stated, this will be a hunting rifle for him, not an ELR fun gun, and our hunting ranges go from close on occasion, out to over 1000 yards for elk, so I'm looking for the most performance at those ranges, and elk at 1000+ yards need some substantial horsepower behind them, especially in a 7mm. It is very possible with a 20" barrel and the right cartridge, especially at the elevations we hunt, which start around 7,000 ft elevation. Trans-sonic/sub sonic performance/consistency isn't a concern, and 1300+ yard performance isn't really something we are gonna be working with [/QUOTE]
