Well even with expensive bullets you have to know something about how they shoot.
Fortunately I have enough that I could spare a few.
The 280 Remington is overbore.
The 7 Rem Mag is over bore.

I'm just a titewad Bob. I like shooting el-cheapo bullets: My rifles don't shoot that good. Somewhere around 1.5 moa. Here's how my 270 fwt shoots: Here's a couple groups when I was trying to develop a good load with the 150 gr. nosler partition:

The first 2 groups shot with my lightish weight elk rifle: I really need to work on developing some good loads for this rifle!!!

I keep the picture in my photobucket so I won't forget what a nice model 70 looks like... For some damn reason, I was thinking I need a good 300 H&H. I hate to admit it, but I've been kicking myself in the azz for not buying one a few years ago that blackdog1 had in a nice McMillan stock. Too good of a deal to pass up, but for some dumb reason I chose to not take it home....

Yes, you NEED a 300 H&H, the perfect stablemate to your 375.

Might as well breakdown and buy a new gloss 3.5-10x40 Leupold to go with those shiny Conetrols.
