[QUOTE="Slick8, post: 1715098, member: 52585"] Lots of people talking about Remington. I'd have a hard time paying 1k for a rifle that needs a trigger and a muzzle brake. Plus I simply don't like the design of the sendero stock or the weight of the rifle. I'd look hard at the Browning hells canyon or tikka or begara if they chamber the rum. I hate to ask but are you dead set on the rum? I owned one in a sako 75 many years ago and while i regret selling such a fine rifle it was way more than needed. IMO-the cost of ammo, recoil, muzzle blast and barrel life doesn't justify the gain in velocity. It's not near as sexy but the good ole 300 wm almost anything the rum will do, has tons of quality loaded ammo and is a dream to load for. If you want sexy you could look into the 30 nos and 300 prc. My greatest complaint with the rum is if you hand load you will want to add a wyatts extended mag box. This is barely long enough to work but is an improvement. Again, if looking at a rum in Remington your now talking about a trigger, brake and wyatts box. That puts you at low custom money. [/QUOTE]
