I'll be using my 300 RUM with 180 ballistic tips for bear which is open right now and again in November for antlerless mule deer. I'm loaning my M70 300 win mag to my 83 year old uncle for elk which opens Sept 15. He came out last weekend and shot on paper and steel. He will be shooting 180...
Back in 1983 I had a Browning B-78 in 25-06 with the octagon barrel. I shot the old Nosler lead tip 120 grain Solid Base bullets with imr 4350. I was able to kill a couple of moose, deer, antelope, bear and countless coyote and fox. Rifle shot very well minimal recoil great cartridge for sure.
I am looking forward to hearing your range report and pictures. Any idea of what you will be putting on it for a scope? What bullet are you wanting to shoot out of it?

Well I have made a number of trips to my 100 yard range this week. I started with the same powders and seating the 180 ballistic tips .018'' from the lands. Groups did not improve except for the IMR 4831 they shrunk a bit on the average. So I stuck with the IMR 4831 and worked on seating the...
Hey there idahohunter, when you said remington clone were you thinking Stiller action? Any thoughts on what you would use for a stock? The 30 Nosler sounds like an awesome cartridge and bullet choices are unlimited.
Also are you considering a Proof Research or Christensen barrel? With the right...
