I’ve had a couple custom 240 wby built on Rem 700 actions. Sold one in a fit of stupidity.
I found both of these guns to be very accurate, with shilen barrels.
I used 90 and 95 grain ballistic tips on 4-5 antelope, including one B&C. The cartridge performed very well on antelope.
Also shot some coyotes with 70 grain ballistic tips. The 240 weatherby is about as good as it gets for killing coyotes. However, hides get pretty trashed.
It’s not very popular, but I like it.
Sorry I can only comment on the cartridge, and not the rifle you are considering.
