    6.5 build question

    Don't get the recommendation for a fire breather intended for extra long range hunting and justifying it because of extended barrel life since the shooter only intends to shoots very, very little. A cartridge with long range capability doesn't make up for a lack of practice. If you're gonna shoot long ranges proficiently, especially in a hunting situation, you gotta burn primers. I just don't get the mindset. I'd build a SAUM at the top end and run 130's at 3200. They don't lose hardly anything to the 140's until waaay out there, low recoil, good barrel life, etc. Win, win, win...

    7mm-08 Load

    Ramshot Big Game and RL-17 will get you 2900+ in a 22" tube. Varget and H4350 will get you 2800-2850... Lots of powders including the above will shoot very well. All about your rifle 's likes as loads are usually not transferable unless you are lucky or gave a great rifle... WLR or CCI is what I prefer for a lighter...

    Any Cabela cards hit

    You guys do know that you can get way more % back on purchases with other cards, then cash in the points for Cabela's gift cards and be two or three times the $ ahead, right? The Cabela's card is marketing genius, especially the junk mail... Just an FYI....
