After careful consideration, I will be getting a 7mag barrel for my pro hunter. I really like the encore/PH format. really enjoyed my 25-06 this year and want to add a bigger cal. Don't really need but what the heck. I will still use my sendero 300rum for the bigger stuff and and will keep my 270wsm ruger. I originally was going to trade the ruger for 270wsm barrel for pro hunter, but after investigating I believe my best bet would be to get a 7mag barrel for my pro hunter instead of trading in my 270wsm ruger. For safty and $$ reasons. there's only about < 100fps differance between the 270wsm and 7mag with the 140 acubonds all the way out to 500yrds, and energy is tit for tat also. Never had a straight 7, so this is the time to add one. Will keep 270wsm for my son (that's my story and I'm stickin 2 it), for it's one of my most accurate rifles, and I really like that cal. As for the 300rum in the pro hunter, I better leave that work for sendero. Even with new stocks ,I bet she would have quiet a thump. Will just try to get my 338wm PH barrel dialed in a little better. Then I will be set.
yea right, DM
