[QUOTE="crkckr, post: 2719746, member: 78056"] I do love my Ruger 77 in .338 WM. It shoots the 210 Nosler Partitions just a bit better than the 250 NP's. The 210's will hold 1" at 100 pretty much all day, the 250's 1 1/4 to 1 1/2". I hunt big game using only the Partitions in all calibers and have sold rifles that wouldn't shoot them very well. That said, if I were starting out on the same quest for a rifle that landed me on the Ruger, today I think I would be looking at a .338 RUM instead of the WM. While I've never even shot one, I've spent a bit of time on a buddies 300 RUM and it's much better than the 300WM. I guess he lucked out when he got it because the barrel looked more like a custom than any factory barrel I've ever seen and the accuracy out of it using 200 gr. Partitions was pretty nice. Since there were no RUM rounds even thought of when I got my WM, I would never switch at this point since it does what I want perfectly already. Never mess with what works! Cheers, crkckr [/QUOTE]
