[QUOTE="Terminalor, post: 1564320, member: 10522"] I built a 338 RUM on a 700 BDL Remington action and stock. Schneider SS P5 30” barrel plus 2 1/4” break. Measures .665 at the muzzle. Jewel trigger. 250gr SMK 3100fps. Was looking at the edge but my smith talked me out of it as he much preferred the 338 RUM for accuracy. I have several targets on my wall with one hole groups at 200yrds. One measured .147 and another with all 3 bullets in the same hole. Another measured 1.549” at 600yrds. Gun weighs 10 3/4lbs with a 5.5x22(right at 2lbs) Nightforce scope. With the break he put on it kicks about like a 30-06. Paid under $2000 and that included the purchase of the new Remington rifle. He built it for me about 8yrs ago and his builds have gone up but he is still real reasonable. Most accurate rifle I have ever shot by far. He has made several with similar results. His guns flat shoot. He built me a 270 Weatherby that shoots close to that as well. [/QUOTE]
