[QUOTE="freddiej, post: 1861505, member: 26227"] Yes, I think this one has been beaten to death, but since I have thought about it on numerous occasions my rifle/cartridge combo has evolved somewhat. Action: Winchester M-70, Kimber 8400, or Dakota M-76 action, (yea, I am not a Rem-700 fan, I like the Win 70 ) Barrel; Krieger 26", 0.850" muzzle, BBL twist 1:8", bore diameter 0.338", spiral flutes Chambering; 338 Win Mag, Stock: Chet Brown "pounder" sporter stock. Bases; Warne Maxima Rings; Leupold SRWII scaloped Scope; Leupold Mark-5 HD 3.6-18X44 or 5-25X56 W/impact 60 MOA reticle Ammo, factory if necessary. Dangerous game, 250 grain Barnes TSX, Nosler Brass, W-760, WLRM Deer: 160 grain Barnes TSX, Hornady brass, W-760, WLRM Elk; 225 grain Nosler AB/225 grain Hornady Inerbond, W-760, WLRM Moose; 250 grain Barnes TSX, Nosler Brass, W-760, WLRM LR game; 300 grain Berger VLD hunter, H-1000, Nosler Brass, WLRM By no means is this a do it all rifle. I have, in my own mind, thought of the most all around useful rifle/cartridge combo I know. nothing special/super cool; just a solid well thought out rifle/cartridge combo that would take deer through large brown bears and moose. disagree with me if you like. I honestly do not care anymore. this would be for the most part my "go to" rifle if I had it in my stable of rifles. at the very least it would be on every hunt. I might have my 270 win, 270 WSM, 300 win, or 270 H-mag on the hunt as primary but that 338 W/M would be a trusted backup. [/QUOTE]
