When I first got my Rem 700 .375 RUM, I mounted a 2-7x Leupold on it, took it to the range and it only took 6 or 8 shots to convince my that it was not a fun gun to shoot, in fact it was the hardest kicking gun that I have ever shot.

So I put a new custom laminated stock that fits me on it, had a KDF muzzle brake installed, and eventually added a recoil reducer in the stock. After those modifications, I've shot several hundred rounds through it, I've taken it to Africa twice where I used it to make my longest and shortest one shot kills on a big game animal with a rifle, 348 yds on a gemsbok and 30 yds on an eland. I also shot several animals from prone positions, all with no ill effects from reciol.

It will also shoot 3 shot moa groups at 100 yds with both 270 and 300gr Barnes TSX bullets.

It's also the gun that I am holding in my avatar photo.
