[QUOTE=".30cal fanatic, post: 1908839, member: 102910"] Best way to figure out what you need is to choose the bullet you want to hunt with first! 1. Choose bullet 2. Choose twist rate 3. Decide what speed you want to chuck it at 4. Pick length of barrel 5. Work out which case is going to give you case capacity to throw the desired bullet/bullet weight at the desired speed. for your intended purpose it’s the 180-195 7mm or the 215-230 .308 bullets (at a minimum I would think) to get the best out of these high BC bullets you want to be in the 3000 fps range. This leaves you with the bigger magnums mentioned in previous post. [/QUOTE]
