[QUOTE="Steve Shelp, post: 1315, member: 22"] [b]Re: This & That....A Layman\'s Long Range Rifle?[/b] Bob Metcalf, I can't say why your 300 Win Mag got those velocities in a 26" barrel. Even with throating it out, those are amazing velocities for a 300 Winny. But I would dare say you'll never find another one that will give the same velocities or even within 150fps of those. I've shot a lot of 300's and never even came close to those velocities. So I guess the bottom line is you had an exception to the rule with a very fast barrel. To get those velocities consistantly and do it in a safe manner, in all hunting conditions, your going to need a 300 Weatherby and above for case capacity. Just my thoughts, Steve [/QUOTE]
