[QUOTE="AJ Peacock, post: 278162, member: 4885"] OK, here is my recommendation. Get a Savage large shank in 300WSM (with the accutrigger). It is nearly the ballistic equivalent of the 300WM, very efficient and is excellent in the accuracy department. Since it's efficient, it will use less powder and have a little less recoil AND will have a bit better barrel life. Then, after you get comfortabe with the Savage, you can just screw on a 338Edge barrel and have one of the premier long range rfles available (same bolt face as the WSM). Might want another stock at that point. The Edge would be single shot. Getting the300WM might let you make a repeater though and the bolt face is probably close enough to work. The above is exactly the path I took to get my Edge. I remain severely impressed with the 300WSM. AJ [/QUOTE]
