Shod, I'm not ignoring you. I wrote a lengthy response to your post on the previous page. For some reason it got lost between my puter and the 'fire.. Please accept this condensed answer.
I've read the remainder of this thread so I'm up to date.
IME 400 yd MPBR is not to hard to better with a 7mm RM & 139 BTSP at 3300 fps OR 300 WM & 165 BTSP at 3300 fps. I'm not adverse to recoil. The 270, 7 RM & 300 WM are among my favs.
Since this thread is somewhat older, I've finished development of my 6.5 Swede with 120 NBT @ 2975 and I'm satisfied.
400 yds is ALL the range I can hunt and I don't have any place to practice farther SO I am pat.
The kick in the butt is this, I've had 400 yd MPBR since I bought my first 270 W in 1975.
