Default RE: 7mm ULTRA

I have developed in my head this theory of natural ballistics. Not a theory really, or even my idea. Its like the entirely perfect cal/bullet combo is 7mm/140 or something a lil on either side of that.

Seems like the 7mm RUM or 7STW is the most ballisitically perfect calibre there is bar none. If you look at the charts the dang things dont even begin to drop til after 400yrds, somethign thatCANNOT be said of my many 30-06s or 270 and 243.

Sadly a lot of magnum riflescome today with 24" bbl from the mfr when its really the 26" thats required for optimum performance.I have newish BLR 7 RemMag/24" I am gonna try Scirocco bullets in to see how it is. I am betting once Ishoot it a bunch that mymany other rifles will be gatheringdust.The rifle already has taken a cow elk with one shot at 607 measured yards by the previous owner.
