    How much over kill do you need? That will be a light gun, needing no brake or suppressor, that won't beat you up and be half the price of a 338 to run

    Are you sure about that data? I ran that load with that speed in my 6.5 saum and it wasn't that much power.
    The 6.5 saum is not really a 800m capable gun on live animals. Each two there own I suppose,
    I wouldn't shoot an animal at over 700yrds with my 7/375 just my self imposed limit still has 1700lbs at that range.
