I will finish by saying that when I queried the guides and outfitters I booked for in MT, Colorado and Alaska as wel as Zimbabwe a few years ago which cartridge they thought was the best overall for big game in thier area's (admittedly a small sample of only a dozen fellows, but with much guiding and hunting experience each) the highest vote getter was the 340WBY and not the 7/08 or a 6.5 anything.
BS. Outfitters mostly shudder when a "dude" shows up with a Weatherby anything. The guide on my first elk hunt asked what I was shooting and I said 300 Ultra.. He kinda went quiet, then asked how much game I had shot with it. He never truly warmed up until I used it to tip over bull.

We (sadly) finished up our bear back strap steaks last week. But bear season is only 2 months away here so there is hope in Safariland, plus still some bear sausage and such. Is that a Utah Bear?

I was one of the first, I believe, to take a 204 and neck it up to .224 AFAIK, right when the 204 became available.
so you took a 222 rem mag case that was necked down to .204, and necked it back up to .224? Thats absolutely [bleep] breathtaking
Once again, I have had to post about me
because you are a narcissist, and you need to show everyone how special and superior you're perceived accomplishments are in comparison to everyone else...you're UBER special
OP, I would REALLY rather this thread you started be about YOUR cartridge and rifle
then just STFU, and it will be

Safariman is the gift that just keeps on giving. Serious round in a serious looking rifle. I am so sick of puny little cartridges (7/08, 6.5 Creedmore, 7SAUM or WSM) for builds this one is a breath of fresh air here. High BC bullet AND some real CC's or cubic inches of horsepower to push it along. I complimented the guy on his round, gave it kudo's vs the pipsqueak rounds that I personally do not care for is based off the 300/7 Saum Norma brass with a 100 degree included angle................ I was sick of shooting 338 edge lapuas and 300 ultra mag imps Just in case there's any confusion, here's a pic to clear things up (the difference is obvious huh?) From left to right: Maybe Uber--DEFINITELY UBER--puny&pipsqueak 7mm Hadly 7mm Rifle Golf 7Saum ![[Linked Image]](https://scontent-a-pao.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xpa1/l/t1.0-9/10441334_645023888907060_2198806895632857415_n.jpg)
