    The One!

    Just for complete coverage I'll pick my Rem 700XCR in 338 RUM. It weighs 8 lbs out the door with a 4.5-14x40 Leupold B&C and a muzzle brake. I think of it as a (Wanna Be) 35 Whelen.

    The cost of reloading.

    onesonek hit on one of the major savings. Customize a load. For instance with my 375 RUM you're looking at $80+ dollars a box with premium bullets. How many boxes would I have to buy to try all variations of bullets in search of the most accurate load? It would then be a compromise between...

    Recoil...the worst?

    I agree with the 450 Marlin. In a Winchester 94 AE Timber. With the thin, hard rubber recoil pad and 22" barrel it slammed back and up. Bruised my shoulder and cheek pretty purple. I changed recoil pads and then it just slammed my cheek. It's recoil was fast due to it's light weight and short...

    Flyer elimination

    The model 70 I bought new about 3 years ago in 223 WSSM wouldn't shoot anything near consistant 3 shot groups either. I tried most things involving loads and lengths to no avail. If longer is better but limited by magazine length you might try a blunter tipped bullet and see if it magically...

    A Productive Day

    DrMike You've proven that the rifle and you are both up to the task and maybe the customer is too. The question would be, why would you want a better than .3" group in a factory hunting rifle? I realize that it's good to have faith in the accuracy of the rifle when hunting but accuracy beyond...

    223 wssm loads?????

    I also had to do some searching for a load. I have 1in10 twist. I ended up with 42 gr. Varget with 2.15 OAL and a 52 gr. Sierra BTHP # 1410 and Winchester LR primers. Case length 1.665 . This gave me 3889 fps. and holes touching at 100 yds. Good luck on your loads. I found it a finniky caliber...

    22 centerfires for big game?

    I would think the growing number of AR rifle owners probably had an influence on the law change. Even California allows 22 center fire. I have killed deer with the 22-250 but to support DrMike's position I will say I have wounded animals with 25, 277 calibers and an elk with a 300 Wby with a...

    Oregon Elk

    It's a good hunt that ends with a tender young bull in the freezer. The tough carry out will fade from memory with time but the memory of the hunt will live on. Congrats on a sucessful hunt and thanks for sharing with those of us (ME) that aren't as skilled at outsmarting those elk. Greg
