    Oh, it's definitely TIC. I don't know if Broz is missing something,or I am, but Luke's post on this subject have been most entertaining. And he does it so eloquently. :)

    300 RUM vs 7MM Rem or 28 Nosler

    Broz, I very well may have missed the explanation on the given rounds used in your cull hunt. I read the thread from the start before I made my first post. Having said that, I would have not commented on this thread had I caught the data given above. Like I said, you have turned the light on...

    300 RUM vs 7MM Rem or 28 Nosler

    NOBODY ever said that a 7 has better external ballistics than a 30. It was the blanket statement of a 30 killing better. All things equal, that's simply not true. You are the one who started comparing a 215gr. To a 195gr. Your thought was why not use the best bullet for the given caliber. That...

    Heck yeah Luke! Top that puppy off with one of those IOR Valdada Terminators with a 40mm tube and 100moa adjustment and you could really stretch the legs out on that .308. Heck, you may even be able to reach out there and knock the dust off of one those Eurasian elk you guys have up there.:)

    300 RUM vs 7MM Rem or 28 Nosler

    Your first paragraph I totally agree with, however, the second paragraph is yet another blanket statement. Painting with a broad brush if you will. Like I stated before, energy is energy. The difference between.284 and .30 is negligible considering the same type of projectile, with the same...

    Lol! I guess that .30cal IS the magic elk round. 30-30's will be flying off the racks now. Hell, maybe 35 Rem will make a come back. Fact is, if it would have been said that a 215gr. In .30 cal would do a better job than a 150gr. in .284, on marginal shots, I would have never commented on this...

    I'm a bow hunter. That lung comment is hard to swallow. If it can't breath, it ain't gonna live.

    300 RUM vs 7MM Rem or 28 Nosler

    I agree. That's why I'm confused. Heck, a 195 in 284 has almost as much BC as a 215 in a 30. Considering the better velocity of the 195 in a 28, the terminal velocity is there. As far as barrel burners, have you know a 28 to burn out? It's funny people say that, but no one seems to have...

    I thought you boys were talking bullet size. Speed kills.

    Lol! See my edit about the 300 AAC.

    So what you're saying is, you have a lot of components for sale cheap? Oh! And a 300 AAC Blackout must be an elk slaying MoFo.

    300 RUM vs 7MM Rem or 28 Nosler

    Ok, I'm bringing this back up. After reading this entire thread, as I'm considering a 28 Nosler, I have to ask how a 300wm can take out an elk better than a 28 Nosler? I saw mentioned that "even with the new 195gr, .284 bullets, the 30 cal still kills faster." This makes no sense to me. The...

    My bad! I missed it!

    Timberline 2... Will I get enough lift?

    24" is 24". 26" is 26". What was the question? Will 26" get you more lift than 24"?...................Well,.....Yes,.......Yes it will! Did I miss something?
