…Which load would you use, assuming I may have to reach out to 400 or beyond?...
This thread was about possible LR hunting, not threading the needle in the bush, was it not?...thus my reason to show the man, with facts, how flat the 7mm-08 can shoot and kill, without having to mess with adjustments, out to 400 yds…..when the boiler room target on a Bull elk has a diameter of sixteen (16) inches.

So… only an idiot would sight his gun for distance as I have described above when they know they will be hunting in tight quarters in brush, so that “thread the needle [gamble] shot” wouldn’t be taken with a +5.8 @ 100 yds rifle would it?

But hey, you go right ahead with your obfuscation and bust my balls. I’ll educate the ones who want to learn something. OK
