bsa1917hunter Campfire 'Bwana B Joined: Aug 2010 Posts: 48,298 Likes: 34 Battle Born	Originally Posted by handwerk The last 5 years I've used my somewhat customized pre 64 M70 300 H&H w/ MCM legend (edge) stock topped with a swaro Z3 3-10x42. It weighs a little under 8 lbs. My hunt is typically hiking in/out 4-5 miles each way, gaining about 2000' with everything on my back. This set-up has worked great with 4 bulls out of the last 5 years. Awesome handwerk!!! I'll be using my custom pre 64 (1957) 338 win mag built on an H&H receiver. It's topped with a Swarovski 3-9x36, holds 4 in the mag box and 1 in the tube, Brown Precision stick, weighs 8 pounds all up. Seems like it will be a joy to pack around. I'm hoping to get a picture of it on top of a bull this year too!! But for now, here's the plain old rifle just sitting there doing nothing ... : It will be loaded with some old Hornady 225gr. interlocks, which seem to shoot pretty well in the ol girl.. As far as other rifles I've used successfully on elk: Ruger m77 mkII 338 win mags. CZ550 American 9.3x62mm 2008 Limited edition 300 WSM model 70 All have done the job when the right bullets are put into the right place...
