[QUOTE="340Wby-4-everything, post: 1908032, member: 47425"] If you are planning to shoot elk at 800 yds, 300PRC, 300Win or 300Wby are far better choices than 7mm's; 6.5s don't even compare and 338s would be better. A brake on a 300 makes it tamer than a 30-06 and a brake on an average weight .338 (this excludes lapua/edge and the like due to their use of 110grs+ of powder) takes them down to about 30-06 recoil. I carry/shoot an ultralight .340 Wby braked that is tolerable, but far from pleasant. However, it is a bang - plop rifle aka DRT every time I do my part [/QUOTE]
