I will take the 26 Nosler.

I'll take the 375.

I'll take it.

The key is finding areas to glass. Anywhere that greens up early (avalanche chutes) is likely to hold bears. The later you go the more disbursed they will be.

If I do another build, this is the action I am leaning towards. I am still in the phase of pretending the last one built was the last one.

I was considering using these in my 338 Lapua, but now I can pass on that. Next spring I would like to try these out in a 300 Wby. Maybe someone else will have some data by then. The performance gains look great.

I spent a lot of time looking for 284 brass. Just bought 400 new cases a couple months ago. I would have waited if I had known. Oh well at least they will be there when I need them now.

All the pigs I have shot have been with a .308. Mostly head shots. The ones that were shot in the lungs never ran any farther than a similarly hit deer.

Congratulations. That’s a nice rifle. I have always been a fan of the looks of the No. 1.

I just don’t like dealing with magazines. It is one more thing to forget.

I picked up my first one this year. I have used it on 4 antelope and 1 mule deer. I like the performance and that I can use factory ammo. I had been using a 284 Win. The cartridge its performance is based on is good enough that I can see why it was copied.

I prefer shooting them with the bow, but I have harvested them incidental to deer or elk with a rifle.

My favorite areas to look in the spring are avalanche chutes. They are some of the first areas to green up.

If I am headed more than 10 miles into the backcountry I carry a NULA 284 that weighs 5.7 lbs all in. To be fair I haven't shot anything with it at more than 320yds and I would not shoot it more than 500. I had been carrying it for everything, but recently I started using a Sako AV Fiberclass...

This was as smooth as a transaction can get. He packed the brass well and shipped it quick. Great communication throughout the transaction.
