[QUOTE="teesquare, post: 2682096, member: 56740"] I recently bought a Savage 110 Ultralight in 6.5 PRC. They are building these with a Proof Research barrel, Accufit stock with adjustable length of pull and comb height and a "blueprinted action". I was skeptical, but at about $1300 for a 6lb rifle with the above features....anyway - it is a great shooter. Still breaking in and only have about 30 rounds thru it. But it is shooting less than .75 MOA out of the box. One complaint is the extremely heavy bolt lift on the second round. I like the rifle enough that I will work on the bolt lift issue. I know you are looking for Elephant killer sized lead slingers.....But maybe Savage makes one of them that is in a large enough hole-making-siz. I killed a very big bodied bull Elk in Oct. with this caliber. Double lunger - he looks a few steps and that was it. Changed my "Never less than a .300 WM" recommendation to hunters wanting to go west and hunk Elk..... T [/QUOTE]
