If you're thinking about shortening your herd, I'd like to suggest you look at a pistol build. I have found that aside from a bit more elevation, 800 is still within reach, and 400 on whitetails isn't out of the question. I gotta say, I was originally envisioning a truck/pack build for my 12.7, and that's what I built. Used everything, "cheap, but still usable" was the mantra... I've since graduated to a "full quality" build list for my next 12.5 (Criterion/Bartlein/Krieger/Lilja still undecided...) from PF/BCM. The 12.7 has put the LaRue in the safe. That, to me says enough. I won't be selling the truck setup for it, either. It will remain in the box under the back seat, full of Wolf.
