[QUOTE="Sheldon, post: 2880, member: 768"] Hey. I have a .338 with a break that I use for everything from blackbirds to elk. It's a lot of fun to shoot. It's a remington 700 SS-DM that I have pillar bedded, reworked the trigger to 2 pounds, lapped the rings, trued the action and rechambered. It wears a muzzle break that works really well, but I can't remember what it's called. It has two baffles on each side and nothing on the top and bottom. The sound goes straight out 90 degrees so it doesn't seem to bother people at the range, spotters or even animals at longe range when shooting from a hillside. They really don't seem to be able to tell where the sound is coming from. Darrel Holland has one that appears to be a copy except for the fact that it's shorter, fatter and has a port on the top. I even have it switche barreled to a factory Rem 700 SS 7Mag barrel. This rifle now shoots about .5 MOA with my handloads and Nolser BTs, but I just made a deal with Dan Lilja and have a couple of barrels coming my way. I just have to pick which calibre/twist to get and I will be rebarreling this one. Go figure eh? Just when I get shooting great I play with it again. [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img] Maybe I can squeeze another .25 out of it? [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] Any suggestions for what I should get? The detachable mag eliminates a lot of options...
