Been hittin the eggnog pretty hard? Agree on the recoil, but you pulled the rest outta your ass.


Pretty sure I use more reach on elk than most and willing to bet I have punched tags further than any .300 bee lover. laugh

Just Sayin. cool


Have you gone daft? The question wasnt weather you've reached out farther than every 300 wby user in the world (cute claim BTW),its about numbers.

What fantasy land are you living in, that a 215 berger at a conservative 3000 fps doesnt give you enough "reach"?

here in the real world,it seems the 6.5 140 @ 3250 is nearly identical at 1k,and actually lagging behind a tad by 1500.

I agree its performance can be matched or bettered with much less recoil/powder..Thats why I dont use it.

That makes it impractical for LR,not incapable.
