I was going to say B-29, too. But now someone went and badmouthed it, so it no longer qualifies. Harumph!

Exactly,that way it can be easily rechambered to 280 Ackley and thus achieve virtual perfection. grin

.22LR, 22-250, 7mm-08, 30-06

Can't recall anybody (in real, non-internet life) talking bad about them. Even among folks that aren't gun nuts, the 7mm-08 has a good reputation around here. When stuff doesn't perform on game like it should, it is generally compared to the 30-06 with factory 180's, and folks mention how it never really gave them any problems and they don't know why they decided to change.
