I built a 15.5 pound 338/300 Ultra to play to 2K with, but finally tired of the boom & concussion.

Sold it, and built a 12 pound 7x300WM w/o a loudener to replace it. Still stayed super to 2K w/o the blast.

Sold it and built a little bit lighter 6.5 PRC, and settled on a load that stayed super to a bit over 1900 yards. Funner yet, and better barrel life to boot.

The 1st load was running the .713 BC 150 SMK's at 3125, but ended backing that off to 3025.

No need to go any bigger for just 1400....... whistle
