I had a whelen but wanted something stainless, lighter and different so I sold it and bought a Kimber montana. Sent it out to JES and he cut it down to 21 inches and punched it out to 338-06. 5 pounds 13 oz scoped with a leupold 2.5-8 it’s a dream to carry and hits hard. Far more accurate than it should be but I won’t complain
