Thanks I will try to find contact info for Winchester

I have a new Browning X bolt 300 wsm I bought 5 boxes of 180 gr acubond Winchester ammo. About second round bolt would not close next round was fine. Fired about a half box and was happy with a 3/4 in 3 shot group to end the session. I don't reload so just used the chamber to check size when I...

Hi iceman I think the vortex viper pst scopes are the best way to go if you would rather not spend over 2 grand for a night force. I went to the range the other day and sighted in my new Savage hs I shot 6 times two 3 shot groups on same point of aim at 200 yards just under 1.5 inch. This older...

I got the vortex 4 x16bx 50 pst on a 223 love it just got the 6x24x50 for a savage 338 lapua mag not on gun yet but got scope in hand and think it will be the cats ***.

Had anyone used Cor Bon ammo in the Savage 338 LM ?

I have a savage 338 lapua on order and read about non laupa brass getting stuck in the chamber. I went out to buy two boxes of ammo for the first test drive and could find no laupa ammo so I went with corbon has anyone tried it. They had 250 grn and 300 so I got one of each.

I have about a 100 bucks for rings what would be best ?

Thanks I'll have to check it out

Well its a done deal I went with a Savage 338 laupa with the hs stock and a vortex viper 6x24x50 pst ffp in moa. It all came together for the $ 2500.00 . I would like to thank you all for taking the time to share info. At times I came real close to going way over the budget with a nightforce...

has anyone any fedback on the rifle packages they offer

I have read that on some brands of ammo the fired cases get stuck in the savage. If I spend the extra bucks for a Remington can I shoot none lapua brass and have no issues with stuck cases?

You ask why I think I need a 33 cal to kill Elk? The friend that offered to take me on my first Elk hunt told me he used 30 cal for years but thinks his 338 rum is alot better. My shooting skill comes from 40 years as a varmint hunter with my 223 s I'm good on small targets to 300 yards and with...

Well I would like a gun good to 1,000 yards but most likly going to limit myself to whatever range I shoot inside a 14 '' gong. LOL

I need a 33 cal rifle for long range Elk hunting. I will not be packing this gun on long walks. I don't reload and at the local stores it seems that 338 rum was last place with just one box of ammo at the local sportmans warehouse they have about three choses on the weatherby 340 or 338 375. the...
