I have a wonderful wife who puts up with my shooting and hunting habits without complaint.
Range update
The 300 ultra shot a .5" group at a 100
The 22-250 shot .5" groups at 200 with cheap winchester 55 grains
The 7 mag shot a 1" group with 150 grain fusions
So. Need to work up some loads and we will have some shooters.
On a side not the brake on the 7 mag is definitely coming off. You could taste the powder after the shot. The 300 ultra was a little better but not ideal. It will definitely require earpro in a hunting setting.

you may have to post a pic of that 200 yard 22-250 target. I have to see that.
5 or 3 shot groups and how many? have to see it to believe it.

Dont you know that everyone shoots .25 moa groups all day long at 200 yards on the interwebs.
Suddenly when there are witnesses however..
THE CHAIR IS AGAINST THE WALL. The Tikka T3 in .308 Winchester is the Glock 19 of the rifle world. The website is up and running!www.lostriverammocompany.com

I dunno...I agree with the OP...when its only shooting .5 with factory loads at 200 yards, some load development needs to be done....

I did not take a pic of that particular group but I did take a picture of the 300RUM 3 shot group at a 100. ![[Linked Image]](http://i1224.photobucket.com/albums/ee372/joshm28/.300%20ultra%20mag%20100%20yards_zpsy3l1rrje.jpg) This is a group that my 6.5-284 shoots regularly. ![[Linked Image]](http://i1224.photobucket.com/albums/ee372/joshm28/canvas_zps13x98cak.png)

If someone posts a pic of a .25" group how exactly do we determine if it was shot at the range they claim? Never understood target pics.

5-5shot groups on one piece of paper is easier to believe. Even if he shot it at 25yds.

I am happy for you. Please show us pictures of the rifles. I am a bit interested in the 338 because I used to talk to the smith.
Sincerely,
Thomas

What model is the Cooper? I have two Varmint Extremes a 223 and 25WSSM and a 220 Swift ordered. They are scary accurate.
I have been on a M70 binge 10 in the last 6mos but my smith has an action and stock blank for either another 7X57, 6.5X55 or 25/06. I just can't decide.
You have an understanding wife....mine knows nothing, nothing but I need to try and explain the need for another safe.

Congrats on the purchases; I hope your shoulder & hearing survive! I've found that you can get good deals on other peoples' customs vs building myself but I still like to waste my money on that elusive "perfect rifle" I know is out there someplace  !
