    Win Mod 70 Extreme Weather rechamber from 300 Win to 300 Ultra Mag.

    Help chosing an Elk Cartridge.

    I have a Winchester Model 70 Featherweight in 270 WSM. I had a Vais muzzle brake installed. I use it for anything that can be hunted in Utah. The largest animal killed with it is my son's 345 6x8 bull elk at 240 yards in the shoulder with a 130 grain Nosler Accubond bullet.
