[QUOTE="martinakl, post: 2328356, member: 74115"] The new 6.8 Western might be an option to throw out there. It's a a commercially available option that slings high BC bullets and fits in a short action magazine. It's .277 vs. .284 (.007 smaller diameter). Recoil is still stiff but probably manageable. I'm not sure it'll get high praises as a good 1,000 yard Elk round but likely plenty for deer up to or close to 1,000 yards. Elk for a good ways out but I don't want to start a war of words on what that yardage is exactly. [/QUOTE]
