[QUOTE="squirrelduster, post: 178805, member: 9736"] Sounds like you have recieved great advice so far. I have a 300 win mag rem 700 that is not blue printed but shoots real well. I recently replaced the stock with one from Darrel Holland and it was heavier than the original stock but absolutely kicks the **** out of you. I couldn't shoot the rifle any more. It would come off of the bags 7 or 8 inches when you touch it off. I didn't know what to do so I did a bunch of research and found a muzzle brake at Brownells manufactured by OPS, Inc. [I]I[/I]t is used by the SEALS and other special forces. The 300 is now the best shooting gun I have ever shot. All of the horror stories of loud and all that are not true with this brake. What I am getting at is you could make the 300 wsm or the 338 into mild recoil guns when you are not competing in target matches by adding a brake. We were shooting at 704 yards this morning and you could see the bullet impact through the scope. Kicks less than my 243. Good luck with your decision. [/QUOTE]
