Chev,

I like 30cal and the success of the 300wsm in fly, LRBR and also F-Class convinced me along with the inherent accuracy of the 30cal bullets.

Recoil maybe up there a bit but get better barrel life as the 7mm mags and pretty much same ballistics.

Hopefully we get more then 5 shooters at the queens. I can't wait to get my 6mm running should be fun. By the way Brett shoots, he will be the one to beat.
