Chev,

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.

As a matter of interest, any of the eastern staters coming across this year to give us a good towelling like previous years?
