[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 70897, member: 2011"] Ok, now I know a bit better where you are coming from. You're about where I am. I almost bought one of Kirby's awhile back. He and I were jawing about a long range big game rifle. Kind of special built w/heavy bbl etc. Once I decide to let loose of the bucks, I'm gonna send him my REM 700 LH in 338 Win and it'll come back a 270 AM how ever he wants to do it just so I can shoot it left handed. I'll use the Ruger #1 375 for brushing elk and the AM for everything else. The 270 win which is a great shooter will go to my son who can still shoot right handed. Love those thumbhole stocks but can't go lefty with it. You may want to wait till he gets his 7mm AM to where the 257 and 270 are. But I think that 270 AM w/the 170gr Wildcat moving at 3400 fps has got to be impressive. The 140gr out of the Win at 3200 with a lot less BC is pretty good. I'd still consider a mil dot scope though. Betcha ya can't talk Kirby out of one of his Weavers. I've got a Cabela's 6.5X20 and a SuperSniper 10X both with mil dots and love them both. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
