    seeing the aim was for 0-200, i went for 8mm - 40 cal, as it should give really good knock down energy out to 200.

    I must have missed the bit about 0-200 yard limit. I was very drunk though when I commented.

    I like Leathel's 338SAUM idea. It would push the 210gr Barnes at a good speed.
