[QUOTE="Bull_Mtn, post: 2091934, member: 105447"] I had a .350 Rem Mag, Mod 700 for a few years, until it was stolen when our home was robbed. I really liked it, I started looking for another and the only one I could find was a Remington custom shop, Model 7 with kevlar stock and 20 inch barrel. I mounted a Burris Signature 1.5x6 scope on it, and took it to the range to sight in. The first shot, I was reminded of a saying and old outfitter I worked for had, it kicked like a "goosed mule"! I didn't shoot another shot until I had an opportunity to drop it off at Gentry's shop in Belgrade, Mt and have one of his fine brakes installed. This tamed it down enough to sight it in. I worked up a reload with W748 powder and a 225 gr Partition that was very accurate, close to 2700 fps. It was my timber rifle and a few elk were taken at close range with it. It didn't seem to matter where they were hit, they didn't go far. I did take a bull at 400+so it can reach out a bit too. I sold it a few years ago, can't jump logs anymore. [/QUOTE]
