4 great Hunting Cartridges

[imyourhuckleberry]

Longer and less body taper
The 338 and 375 were designed for hunting with teeth in mind. Meaning dangerous game.

Though the numbers are impressive, I have no desire to hunt anything that a 30-06 cannot kill.

RBROS HOTH
Travis was gracious enough to put my name in it. Even though he was the one who brought these to fruition

Along with what I said above the 338 RBH can get a 300 berger to 2850 fps with a 24 inch barrel and H1000 in a 8.5 lbs hunting rig

So How much h1000?

Id take any of them .But REALLY like the 338 and up.Just wish I had some fun tickets for those toothy critters.Local watering hole mile down road has 2 ten ftrs standing in there,both B&C

So How much h1000?

Over 92 grains

Mine has learned it's better to go with the current instead of fighting it.

I know it's a small sample and this LRH environment is a finicky thing at times.
The 7 RBH got to take 4 bulls this last fall with the 195. Limited opportunities to have real world testing play into the reporting of performance
Stay tuned

Did you go out of state for your four bulls? I'm also an Idahoan, I've done two elk via the general hunt plus a landowner depredation (but that tag is treated as a controlled hunt, so it can be limiting). I have never felt like paying for an extra non resident tag, especially since I now get the Senior Combination license. We're you here in the 70's and 80's when there were two elk tags and freedom to hunt? General elk tag and Panhandle tag. PS Did you stick with one RBROS model or do you have four individual rifles? Any recommendations for moose draws over there? Thank you, RR

I get to help out some guys that have a hunting lease. They drew 4 bull tags for the rifle hunt. They used my rifle and have used them in the past. 7saum,300rum now the RBH. It works out good for all. They get bulls and I get more real world info. Personally it's been a lot of years since I've punched my own tags. Can't remember the last time. I also help out young hunters and family to get their tags filled.
I have 4 rifles in 2 different models.
7 and 300 are the Apex Hunter
338 and 375 are the Alaskan Hunter
