[QUOTE="Eagleye242, post: 1763899, member: 111043"] I have a Winchester M70 "Ultimate Shadow" chambered in 325 WSM. I really like this rifle for it's accuracy and "Thump" [I also have an 8mm Rem Mag] The 325 is quite a bit easier to handle at the bench, due to more tolerable recoil. My rifle shoots everything I have tried in it well, weights from 185 grain to 220 grain. Really likes the older Norma Dual Core, plastic tipped bullet, but, unfortunately, this bullet is a bit fragile close in. I have shot a big black bear [200 Accubond], 2 Whitetail deer [196 Norma D-C] One Elk [200 Partition] All DRT except the Elk which took 3 steps and fell on his nose. I make all my brass by necking up 300 WSM, 1-F Nosler brass I get from a friend. My favorite load for the bullets that weigh 195-200 grains is 70/71 grains of Norma MRP. around 2975 fps, depending on bullet. I use VV N560 with the 185's, WXR with the 220 grainers. Most groups are ¾ moa or less right out to 400M. This is one rifle I plan to keep indefinitely. Dave. [/QUOTE]
