My pet hunting rifle is a 280, my first string competition silhouette rifle is a 260, but I might shoot the Montana 223 the most of all. It’s a three-way tie!!! grin


Anybody who seriously concerns themselves with the adequacy of a Big 7mm for anything we hunt here short of brown bear, is a dufus. They are mostly making shidt up. Crunch! Nite-nite!
