Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Step up in performance from 30-06

I'll have my head cracked for suggesting this but as you're using Partitions rather than high BC bullets, what about the 325WSM?

You may want to investigate revamping your 300 WSM EW to a lighter platform...

I have the same M70 EW in 300 WSM. Mine has a 3.5-10x40 Leupold in X-Low Talley Lwt's. I swapped-out the steel follower with an aluminum one, and the factory bottom metal with a PT&G aluminum one. Those two items shaved 2.5 oz's. I'll be selling the B&C stock and putting it in a Bansner or Brown. All-up weight with sling and rounds will be around 7.75 lbs. RL17 sends the 180's at 3,030. It's the most accurate rifle I own, and I really like its weight-forward feel over the lighter Kimber's. It doesn't offer that much more than a 30-06, but for me it's more about the rifle it's chambered in. It's a better LR rig than the Kimber. A bit heavier and more barrel weight.

Only other thing I'd suggest is a 375 H&H.

Like me, you sound bored
