I got in the habit of only keeping the exceptional ones. It better be well under .2" if it wants to come home with me!

I wouldn't rule out the 7 RUM with the new 195 Bergers at about 3000fps. It should give both the 338 Edge and the 300 RUM a run for their money at most reasonable ranges. Not to mention that in identical configurations the 7 RUM will have less recoil, and it's pretty noticeable after a day of shooting. It was much easier for me to spot hits when I had the 7 RUM barrel on my gun shooting the 200gr Wildcat bullets @ 2980 fps than it was shooting the same gun with the 338 Edge barrel and 300gr Bergers @2925fps. I'm not afraid of recoil, but I don't see any need to get kicked around if it's not necessary.

We should put together a Hunt-Wa long range competition. To meet up and bragging rights :)

For the record, I build the most accurate rifles on the planet. I just fail to use them to their full potential. :chuckle:

You know, being internet cool is the first step to being internet famous. The next step is to make tutorial videos and display how your superficial knowledge of a subject provides you with just enough insight to convince up and coming internet cool kids that you know what you're doing.

I'm not going to lie, I consider myself a bit of an expert on this whole "internets" thing. I was offered a youtube sponsorship by a toothpaste company out of Azerbaijan that I've never heard of. Yeah, I'm kind of a big deal.... :chuckle:

I don't really think you're "Hide" material. Do you even snipe bro?

This really isn't a bad idea. I don't know that there should be guns involved though. There are some pretty "passionate" individuals on here. ;)

I'm all confused, I was watching the Outdoor channel and McWhorter holds claim to the most accurate custom rifles in the universe. :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle:.
