[QUOTE="ishootkittens, post: 749432, member: 23225"] I am sorry.. did you mean .10 bucks a shot? I am confused at that last part. Maybe I am having a *"Duh"* moment but I am confused! haha I know the .338 is about 1.40 a shot if you handload for it! Im sorry guys, I just dont see why a high powered .30cal wouldnt do ANYTHING a .338 would do under 1000 yards. I love the cartridge and most guys live and die by it but in terms of cost and recoil..I just dont understand picking the .338 over one of the 300 mags. 300Win Ammo is just as plentiful (if not more plentiful) as .338 ammo if he does not hand load. If he does then he will still pay less to load one of the .300's. He is over 50 (if I understood your PM's correctly, Stephen. I am sorry if I got that wrong) and doesnt want something thats going to break his shoulder whether it be carrying the rifle or shooting it. He also doesnt like the BLAST so he wants a suppressor to stick on the end of it instead of a brake. [/QUOTE]
