re: ideal 300 magnum

If you're shooting super long distance for antelope, I get it. I own a 30-378 that I bought mostly for sheep hunting. Instead of the 174 grain bullets commonly used, I experimented until settling for a 150 grain Nosler Accubond. It's still too much rifle for sheep as it would be for speed goats, but I don't worry a bit about 600-1500 yard shots.
The only real downside is lugging that magnum length barrel through underbrush and up mountains.

Yep the 30-378 does excellent at extended range. Still want to take one on a elk hunt
