[QUOTE="*WyoWhisper*, post: 9792"] Well, Boyd... I don't see the word Elk anywhere but if you say so...the month of November is more consistent with Mule Deer than Elk.. I see your point but.. that gun only gets heavy if you have a small horse... AS I said the caliber is the main point. C.M. can build "hunting style" rifles too... Not puching anything.. as I can recall numerous situations from numerous people who post their rifles every chance they get too.. but now those people ar ein competitions and things have become very secretive... no worries I am not offened take way more than that to offened me. But I see now that there are eyes everywhere and "shots" will be taken at every opportunity.. maybe I brought that on by my "monster thread" about BR, BS or Ego.. so I'll ride the storm. No big deal.. As far as the video thing. Sure that would work... 338-378 is supposed to e-mail me or call for C.M.'s number... havn't heard from him yet... And I'm hoping to be in one of those video's with C.M.'s rifles.. just waiting to hear from 338-378 on that too.. I have all 10 applications sitting here ready to go! <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">quote:</font><HR>At $3000.00 to $3500.00????? I don't think you would sell very many at that price. Even $2500.00 would be way out of line with a Remington action. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> With out getting in to a ANOTHER ****ing match .. full blownn tactical have a bit more then standard "stuff" on them...but they can be had for much less as well... Bill, let me rephrase my original reply as to keep things in line ( read P.C.) to avoid the aggrivation and edge that seems to be present... OK here we go... Bill welcome to the board! I live and hunt in the west ( wyoming ) and I have actually had the oppotunity to experiment with many calibers. You don't specify which animal you are actually hunting so I will assume Elk or Mule deer... The 300 WSM can be a very versitle caliber and very capable of Mule Deer beyond 800 yards and Elk to 500 yards with the right bullets. Several manufactures carry this caliber and Winchester has the greatest selection of rifle styles. There are also some very talented custom gunsmiths that frequent this board and I am sure they would be able to build you anything you desire.... Depending on what your hunting and who you're hunting with feel free to contact me as there are some do's and don'ts when hunting out this way and I have been know to give out some "secrets too" good luck...
