Mines the 7 Mashburn Super. Read about it as a kid, had no clue what it really was till I was schooled by a few hunters 10-12 years ago I guess. Had my first one made on a rechambered M70. Later I had one built on a P64 Magnum action. Since then it’s accounted for a lot of stuff and has been my...

Boy they are priced right too.

Need…. What is this you’re speaking of Major? :ROFLMAO:

35 Whelen. Hands down. Not because it’s necessarily better than anything but the cartridge just works for me.

22 Creed….. man, what a ripper.

I’m with Mike. They’re all pretty danged good. I have a 358 Win and a 338 Federal. I guess in my brain they are pretty much the same. Both have been complete hammers on deer. I like the 338/358 quite a lot and couldn’t pick a favorite. Good thing is we don’t have to!

I would think so. I know they used a 8 or 8.5 for the 27 Nosler so I decided to add a little extra rpm since the WSM isn’t quite as fast.

Great score. For quite a number of years my 270 WSM accounted for elk and deer. Excellent cartridge, and mine has just shot everything real well. I haven’t used it in awhile just cause, well it was a front runner for so long. RL22 and 7828 were favorites back when I started then the newer...

I was just thinking, 308 cases make excellent 7-08 ammo! All jokes aside the 308 is a great cartridge.

My thought to. Put a known good scope on it and try again. I know you did a bunch of bedding work to your #1’s so I’d suspect scope before much else. Other than check screws for snugness.

I did mine on a whim. I picked up that SS Classic for a good price, but already having a couple 06's, I decided to make this one a 338-06. Focused on the 225 AB with one of my favorite powders, RL17 and man if I wasn't real happy with the outcome. I do have a Bansner stock I could have fitted...

If Remington ever puts them out again, their 200 grain CLRN is one heckuva bullet. The older 200 grain Silvertip was a great one as well. I am sure the Silvertip will never come back, but there is hope for the 200 grain Remington since they use it in the 360 Buckhammer. Never found much...

My 270 WSM shoots the PT Golds really well. May try them in my JOC 270 as well, just to see what they do as well.

I'd start at .050 off the lands if you can. Usually only have to work shorter from there.

Same here. I finally trimmed Mashburn brass I formed in 2017 or so. The original 50 pieces of RWS. I don't trim and don't fret over a couple thou of length difference myself.
