[QUOTE="86alaskan, post: 1377953, member: 75933"] So, I'm in the process of putting together a big rig, 338 RUM for elk and such. It'll be a repeater with a 26" barrel. My question is.... what weight should I shoot for? I used to have a tikka t3 lite in 338WM and it had a sharp and hard recoil shooting 250's fast. I was thinking in the 11-12lb range, but wanted to know from those who know. I'll run both suppressor and brake, and try not to carry the rifle farther than necessary. I have a carbon barrel/edge stock 300WM for hiking. [/QUOTE]
