Sorry guys. I love my 30-378! :grin: Yes it is inefficient. Yes it's loud. Yes it's fun grouping big heavy slugs at very long ranges. Sacrifice accuracy for velocitiy--check out the 1000yd matches and records!! :eek:

I shoot all and luv em all. :grin: 223, 270, 308, 30-06, 35 whelen, 338, 444, 45-70. When I start deciding that I don't need a new one, I'll sell them all. It's want, not need. I love to play with balistics. I have yet to match Weatherby's pub'd numbers, but I do get an honest 3415 fps with a 180 barnes-X. Flat? You bet. :grin: Snatches the life from a big Bull Elk at long range like I've never seen before and I've seen many!!

I know, how dead is too dead? but I luv watching them fall NOW! Not ito tracking through bowdowns and black timber. BTW-when playing with these guys, a premium bullet is a must. I have yet to recover even a small piece of my Barnes bullets.

This is just my humble opinion. I still hunt Elk with my JDJ's, and deer with my 243 and 270. I luv my range time with anything I can.
