Had a customer contact me from Idaho, wanting the most long range performance he could get and stay under the 16 lb weight limit for hunting rifle in his state. Talked over my XHS LW rifles, designed specifically for this reason. Use the smaller diameter BAT receivers, lighest weight stock that will survive these monsters and a special lighter barrel contour that offers all the strength needed for top loads with my big Allen Magnum wildcats yet very reasonable weight. We decided on my 338 Allen Magnum chambering as he had a supply of virgin bertram 375 CT brass.
finished rifle weighed in at 15.5 lbs ready to shoot. The bertram brass did allow 3300 fps with max loads but settled her back to 3250 fps range to offer my required brass life. Told him when he shoots that up we can get him some peterson brass and add another 100 fps with even longer brass life!!
comfortable to shoot, would compare to a 270 win sporter weight rifle so not bad at all. The full length barrel and full dimension stock make it very comfy to shoot at long range. Easily meeting my 1/2 moa accuracy potential requirements at +1000 yards.
