The load is a 250 gr AB at 3000 fps.

That'll work just fine! Good load and good shooting!

 

[hubcap]

That load is Mr. Nasty for sure. Mighty fine group at 200 yrds, 8) 8)

 

[FOTIS]

Just bad AZZ!!!

 

[Vince]

Very nice!

 

[DrMike]

Bragging size groups from the big RUM! What's not to like?

 

[Guy Miner]

Now Jim, everybody knows a Remington is no good, especially in a brutal big cartridge like that... :grin:

Nice shooting!

 

[Alderman]

If I ever did that well, I'd frame it and hang it on the wall.

 

[greenheadcaller]

That'll surely work!! Congrats!

Excellent group Jim. My .338RUM will outshoot me any day of the week. I've found it to be an excellent wind bucker also. My main bullet is either a 225 grain prohunter or a 225 grain Partition. I've been able (on a good day) to put either bullet in an inch at 200 yards. The shining star of this cartridge is it's ability to put game down "right there".

 

[JD338]

Thanks fellas, I was very pleased!
When I fired the second shot, I could see through the scope that it was looking good.
I confirmed with the spotting scope that it was a double so the pressure was on not to flub
the third shot. The VX-6 is pretty good glass!

brm, I couldn't agree more. Shooting game with the 338 RUM is a sight to behold.

Awesome JD! Looks like you're ready for just about anything!

 

[FOTIS]

I do not know how you keep on getting lucky with them remington's Jim!

Awesome JD! Looks like you're ready for just about anything!

The Michigan Rhinos need to be very cautious about showing themselves in Jim's presence. :shock: Shooting like that with those big cartridges is just awe inspiring.

I've gotten pretty lucky as well! Especially once I shoot the new one I just "stole" LOL

Great shooting Jim. I'd be tickled with 100 yard group like that let alone 200 yards.

Fotis I think Remingtons don't know how to shoot any different :mrgreen:

 

[IdahoCTD]

Nice shooting Jim.

 

[SJB358]

Very nice Jim. That's an amazing rifle. Your a half way decent driver too :lol:

Ha! Just busting on ya. You shoot so many danged groups like that you make it look easy!
