[QUOTE="straightshooter, post: 180638, member: 9775"] Sorry guys, the more I read the more questions come up. Still trying to pick a rifle base to start. I don't want to rush this and end up with something that I will end up regretting later, but I do need to get going to have everything ready for this next elk season. I just read a post where one guy has a savage 300 wsm and has a 338-300 ultra mag barrel. He uses the 300 wsm for practice and screws on the 338-300 ultra for the long range stuff. He says the 338-300 ultra empty case will eject from the action but the rifle is a single shot since it is a short action. This sounds kinda like the best of both worlds. What are the thoughts on this route. Practice with the 300wsm to save the barrel on the 338-300 ultra. [/QUOTE]
