[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 1213075, member: 48043"] I own a ruger #1 in 338win... The only critter I have killed with the rifle was just over 550 yards out. I killed the mule deer with a 225 hornady sp pushed with rl19 out of the rifle. Moa on crappy days and 1/2 moa on a good day is the norm for this rifle. She bucks like a mule (regular hard pad) and hits hard on the other end too... The rifle shoots 250 sierra and 225 nos ab fine too, but do not ask it to shoot 285-300 grain bullets. I could not get accuracy with those until I was over pressure badly... It can be very rewarding to have a good long range single shot; do not expect it to be as easy as a bolt gun to get shooting well though. [/QUOTE]
