Right now I am thinking for my money and intended use the Remington 798 is the best deal going (Zastava action) NIB they are around $700, upgrade to a better stock and shorten the barrel to 24 or 22" and i'd be good to go.

I've had them at 22", 24", 25" and 26". I'll never have a "keeper" over 22" again. .

Guy isn't that what you used on your bear out of your #1? I shot a stock 798 with factory 270gr loads and it was down right pleasant recoil wise. If I run into a large sum of money the Winchest model 70 safari classic is a beautiful rifle. Not sure If i'd go blue wood or stainless synthetic.

AFTERUM Campfire Tracker A Joined: Sep 2007 Posts: 4,858 CENTRAL FLORIDA	Originally Posted by GAP243 I've got an old FN Browning Safari in 375, and it has been an extremely accurate and durable gun. Took my cape, kudu, elk and countless hogs with it. One of those guns that would never be sold. would love to have one of those with the long (mauser style) extractor..........

One shot at a bit over 300 yards, full penetration and the bear fell instantly. We found him under some brush, he crawled about 6' after being hit, lost a lot of blood.
