[QUOTE="ENGUNEER, post: 1577659, member: 69255"] With all those nice 338's out there I just had to post something about mine as well. I have worked for over a year to get it to shoot well and couldn't get it to shoot under 1 MOA. So, I decided to machine a solid aluminum bedding block integral with a magazine cutout. This apparently gave the additional stiffness (and weight) needed to get it to shoot. It now shoots <~ 1/2 MOA. It is a Weatherby Mark V action (no accurizing) with a 28.5 in. Krieger #5 bull sporter barrel with a 10" twist. It is chambered in 338 NM and shoots the 300 Berger EH at 2800 fps with 95 gr RL33. And, it now weighs a hefty 14# with scope and bipod (which also helps with the recoil). [/QUOTE]
