[QUOTE="FlGunner, post: 1363990, member: 94240"] My most recent conversation with a guy at a range I go to often..... Hey what caliber is that you're shooting? I respond 7mm Remington Magnum. He said well if your serious about long range you'll get a 308.... That's what snipers use because they're the most deadly long range gun and it's got way more energy than your 7mm. I laughed at the guy and asked if he could prove it as that's what he was shooting. Keep in mind the steel we were gonna shoot is regular carbon steel not actual ar 500 hardened like most range use (range went cheap) . At 400 we shoot separate plates, his swung and mine barely moved asked did I hit lol, my 7mm with 168 Berger's blew through lol. Not just on that shoot but every shot. He said that's why he don't shoot hollow points and packed up. Clearly I was laughing at that point lol. I am by no means an expert on long range but I'll take my 7 over his 308 for my purposes.
