[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1769192, member: 2736"] I would have to agree with Frog for an all around cartridge/rifle combination to do such a wide variety of task. It can be loaded down with 180 class bullets for all but the really big stuff and up 200 to 250 grain bullets with lots of knock down energy for bears and moose. I built mine on a Model 7 Remington To use the shortest action they make and a 22" #4 contoured barrel. This thing will get your attention with the 225's and the 250's and needs a muzzle brake for fast follow up shots if needed. Mine weighs just over 6 pounds. It will propel a 225 very close to 2700 ft/sec for lots of energy, and for the other uses the 160 grain velocity will exceed 3100 ft/sec and the 180 will shoot just above 3000. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
