[QUOTE="Guest, post: 54956"] I know its not a longrange caliber, but hopefully someone here will have used this combination before...I'm planning a .338-06 as a timber rifle and have a few questions... It will be on a M700 LA with the Holland or Gre-Tan assembly, wearing a pinned Holland recoil lug around a 22" Lothar-Walther 1:10"tw barrel. It is a 1200 contour which is 1.2" for 3", then tapering to .575"at 26". I plan to bob it at 22", which will make for a muzzle dia. of about .625". I'll probably finish it in Birdsong Black T... I have both BDL and ADL bottom metal(haven't decided yet), and will probably use a Leupold compact 6x with Talley lightweights. I don't want a super lightweight for recoil reasons, but would like it to finish fairly sveldt.... Give me some stock suggestions, etc. and some load ideas with lighter bullets...I'll probably only shoot whitetails with it...don't need the heavy stuff... BTW, I ned a set of dies to do some experimental loads with if anybody has a spare set they want to let go... [/QUOTE]
