I like them.
Don't understand why people think they are only a 100 yard cartridge.
They are an excellent hog cartridge.
Had a Pachmayr 1" grind to fit pad put on my 336, installed a Happy Trigger myself, loosened the forend a bit - shoots MOA with 150 grain Corelokts, sometimes a little better. Until a year ago.
Last fall I put a Beartooth comb riser on it and upgraded from a Fullfield II 2-7x35 to a VX-3 1.75-6x32. It now shoots Sub MOA consistently with less felt recoil than my Vanguard S2 Sporter .243. I think it was the comb riser that improved my accuracy not necessarily the scope.
What's not to like about it?
