Yes. How about putting that 30-06 in the Brown Precision stock, trimming the barrel to 22" if necessary, and leaving it at that?

If you feel the 300 mag has enough steam to do the job at 450 yards than there's no logical reason to doubt the efficacy of the 30-06 out to your 200 yard specification.



Very good point and definately something to consider. I am kind of enamoured witht he idea of a little bigger hole than .308 for no logical reason but your point is certainly valid and worth consideration


The 338-06 ballistics: 225 grain bullets at 2700 fps alllllll day long......


That is the combo I am leaning towards right now.


Jesse takes the guns shipped regular USPS priority mail. Dozens of guys on here have gone this route.

Then there's the 275 grain A-frames at 2400 fps. Sight in a smidgen high at 100 yds, for a no-nonsense hold out to 300 yds. You can eat right up to the bullet holes, no blood-shot mess and one helluva blood trail......


Good to know...thanks!
