Stovepipe, when you like reduced loads, have a look at the copper plated bullets of H&N

Got the .300 for a reason. And I aint reducing it. I reduce pistol rounds oh, nevermind.

Nope !!! 6.5x47 Lapua or the short stuff and big brother Mr.338 for the long range !!! |
You'd make a good BR shooter, following along lockstep with the Flock.
Try something different and challenging for a change. Or have you forgtten the roots of long range improvised tactical American sniping? (think pre-64 Model 70's in the jungle...)

Ok, I'll be the one that does it. So how is having a .338 out of step? (I may not have understood your comment). As Pumpkinslinger just reported, the .338 just took the long-range sniping record away from the .50-cal!
LOOONNGGG distance shot!

I was refering to the roots of American sniping when I mentioned flintlocks.
