For factory fodder mine really does well with hornady 180 gr interlock SST. Cheap, fly straight, kill dead. Something clever here.

This is actually the third .300 Roy M-70 I'll have owned. I placed a bid last week, really hoping just to score it for the action as a potential donor. Never expected that bid to hold up. I'm thinking I'll probably end up shooting the donor though... “Factio democratica delenda est"

You're more practiced than me then, but I'll show a pic anyways since I stumbled across it in my photobucket while looking for an old fishing photo. Something clever here.
