I have an EW in 264 Win Mag. It can shoot nickel size groups with the Barnes 127 LRX bullets driven by 70.1 grains of RS Magnum. I did not run it over the crony so velocity is unknown. I posted pictures of the groups here on the Fire November 30 this year. To date That is the only load I have fired.

This rifle is a keeper and I cannot wait to use it next year on a Mule Deer Buck

I have an EW in 300 WSM. I bought it the first or second year they made them. It has been an accurate rifle. Unlike some others, I like the stock, so much so I put one on my 7 WSM to have a matched pair of rifles.

My buddy was looking for a good rifle and I steered him to an EW in 30-06. It needed bedded but puts 3 Nosler 180 PT into an inch. I like them.

That said, I really, really wish they'd go back to the open trigger. My 7 WSM is a New Haven gun and has the open trigger. I like it much better.
