200 AB 95 gr Retumbo Nosler brass Fed 215M 25" 3220fps

I would almost put money on 2800 or more (y)

Congrats! I have the itch to go back already after my hunt this past February.

RL-26 should get you 2700 fps or more with the 200 AB. Running over 2700 with the 200 AB out of a 20" barrel. Using Lapua brass and Fed 215M.

I think we have a replacement in the FN SCAR-H. Some SF units already use it like Scotty said. It comes down to if the Pentagon and bean counters want to go back to the 7.62.

Really liking my Mystery Ranch Metcalf. Carried my Sendro on the side just fine. Unfortunately didn't get to pack out an elk with it yet. http://www.mysteryranch.com/metcalf-pack-ex

Very happy with RL-26 and the 200 ABs out of two different 30-06s. Didn't work so well with the 180 ABs. Couldn't get enough powder in the case to do much better. Thinking about trying some 220 and 240 SMKs just to see what happens.

Very cool! Good luck!

I went with the Rem 700 30-06 and 20" barrel. Pushes 200 ABs just over 2700 with RL-26. Should have both the new cans around January.

Buddy has one also. No louder than a small air rifle and wicked cool!

I should have recorded Scotty's speech! Motivational is one word that comes to mind (y)

Had the honor of attending also. It was a great ceremony and one heck of a party for an old, crusty Marine and good friend. Semper Fi brother!

I will second some of Scotty's picks and add one. .277 150-160 Accubond

Congrats on the rifle and the bear.

Don't see myself using anything other than the 200 AB in my 300 RUM. Shoots and works great. Maybe the 182 E-tip if Oregon goes with the lead ban.

I'm a believer in Lapua after using it in the 6x47. Started using it in the 30-06 and converting the 243 AI over now.

Same here! Really have no real need for a 375 but, have a bad want for one (y)

Congrats! You did win the lottery with that tag!

I would be on a plane tomorrow if I could find the extra couple of dollars for a cape buff hunt :mrgreen:
