[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 1641270, member: 87243"] In the 338 Norma, I put one together with a Stiller CIP length DBM, and I'm putting together a light weight one with an aluminum BDL bottom metal. It may only hold 2+1, hoping for 3+1, but I haven't had to shoot that many times at anything in years. I would base my decision on if I wanted a lighter or heavier rifle. The one with the dbm is a 11.8 lb rifle scoped and loaded. The bdl is going to end up 8.5-9.0 lbs depending on what scope I go with. Haven't shot the 300 norma, but in the 338 I got best velocity with Retumbo (didnt try N570) but ridiculous consistency with H1000, and only gave up roughly 50 fps or so. From 84-89 grains, one shot at each grain, all shots were touching in about a 1" ctc group that ranged over 180+ fps. [/QUOTE]
