When you shoot a deer with it, I keep the second dead one behind your deer. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moog5050 Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 Sorry for derailing. Would love to own it. Great rifle and a great price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don_C Posted June 5, 2018 Author Share Posted June 5, 2018 Yes, perfect rifle for a two-fer! It really is a fun gun to shoot and the recoil isn't nearly as bad as you would think. I once shot a jar of tannerite with it and the combination of the gun and that stuff sounded like a darn nuke went off! As far as shooting deer with it... well I can honestly say we have had less meat damage with this than the '06s or 270 WSM. It just seems to make one nice clean BIG hole! Speaking of 270WSM, if anyone shoots one, I have a 2 boxes of Federal 130gr. ammo I would be happy give away. I no longer have that gun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airedale Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 (edited) Anyone considering going on some big game hunts that is a very nice rifle and scope along with that 338 Winchester mag cartridge it can handle with ease just about any big game animal that walks and all of them in this part of the world. Once upon a time I owned a 338 and have fond memories of that rifle, a Sako Finnbear mounted with a 2x7 Leupold scope that had a three inch dot reticle. Killed an Elk a Caribou and three Whitetails along with a bunch of woodchucks I would hunt for practice and for getting a good feel for that rifle in field conditions.

bruno1 Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 If you weren’t so far I’d be real interested. Great gun for my Saskatchewan trip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinootz Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Why would you be selling a rifle you barely shot? Or did you leave a zero off the number of rounds. Sounds odd to me . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don_C Posted June 11, 2018 Author Share Posted June 11, 2018 The number is correct. I was selling it because it rarely gets any use, BUT... son wants it so it's no longer for sale. Lock 'er up please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
