I'll stay with my classic Pre '64 70 , 26" bbl, in 300 H&H w/ 200 gr partitions at about 2800 fps. I have several others, 300 Win Mag, 338-378 KT (ouch) and 375 H&H. But I always go back to the 70.

Ruger M77 ss boat paddle stock in .338, topped with a VX6-3-18. TTSX 210 in front of 76 gn of Hunter powder and federal 215gm primers.

 

[Dosh]

30/378 Weatherby mag, stainless, bedded, timney trigger, HS stock, Talley rings, Nikon Monarch 30 mm scope, Berger 210 VLD (but really want to try the 215 Berger some time) Holland can't level and lots of meat in the freezer. Back up is .270 Weatherby mag set up same as above except B&C stock and 150 Berger VLD bullet. In my mid 60's and this works for me. This fall is my 13th consecutive year drawn for elk. But Karma tells me I am doomed to buying my turkey since experiencing a 7 year drought for a turkey tag.

My old go to was a 300 win mag but I just purchased a new model 70 300 wsm that I am excited to use. Still trying to determine what load and bullet choice. I'm thinking 180 grain Nossler Accubonds.

 

[Rucker61]

Tikka T3 Lite in .300 WSM, Mini-mag Muscle Brake, Karsten cheek riser and Vortex Viper PST 4-16x50 SFP. I modded the bolt stop and run the 168 grain TTSX 20 thousandths off the lands.

 

[1100 Remington Man]

My biggest Rifle is a Rifle given to me by my Grandmother a Model 70 made in 1939 in 300 H & H, I use to use it for bear hunting with a 1.75 x 5 power Burris but last year I put a 3.5 x10 40mm Leupold VX-3 CDS. It's a MOA Rifle with Nosler Partations 180gr. I will say a 180gr bullet at 3000 FPS is all the recoil I care for. 20 rounds I'm done. I do shoot it well as I believe the Model 70 trigger is better than my Remington 700's.
