[QUOTE="Broz, post: 748955, member: 7503"] I shot the same rifle for a few years and it did fine. The only draw back is it will have a shorter barrel life than others like the 300 win. I would go ahead and use it too. Does it shoot the 230's well? If so you should be able to get them to 2950 or maybe 3000 fps. At 3000 with a 230 shooting under 1 moa this would be a great LR elk rifle. Many get along with the barrel life just fine. It all depends on the number of rounds you shoot a year. I would load the 230's, keep the barrel cool during practice and go with it. Jeff PS: that elk below is holding my 30-378 accumark for me and also a Berger.:cool: [/QUOTE]
