    3 shots with a 338 into a running elk? Shooting prairie dogs with your 300RUM? Was he able to find any trace of it after the shot? The 300RUM is the best all around cart.? Believe in real life experiences, not articles written by someone seeking notarity

    Great deal on Leupold Mark 4 LRT M1 Scope 30mm Tube 6.5-20x 50mm

    the 3.6" eye relief shouldn't be a problem. I have the same scope on my 300rum. The scope hasn't kissed my eye yet.

    to paint or not to paint

    I have a new sendero 300rum and I want to know if I am crazy for wanting to paint it. I have all the equipment necessary, I paint model for a hobby. Just wanting to throw some camo on the stock, barrel, and scope. I am just afraid cause it is new ($1800 worth of new). Thanks

    .300 Rum

    If it is new, $810 is about the going price. I got mine for $790 new. I can't tell you anything about the 338win, but I can tell you the 300rum is fun to shoot and reload for. Although, part of me wishes I would have gotten the 338rum. I guess you can never be happy.

    I set the caliper dial to zero. Then I moved it back and forth(over and over again)and it still reads zero. But I still have the same problem mentioned in the above post.

    my caliper......junk or normal????

    I have a mechanical stainless steel caliper. This will be difficult to explain but here goes. When you open it up to measure a casing, the tips of the jaws (flat part, not the edged section) measure different from the part closest to the body. The same goes for the middle of the jaw. The caliper...
