[QUOTE="Mike Matteson, post: 2423253, member: 101791"] Shot expert in the Army with an M-14 out to 400 meters. No scope either. I was shooting a Ruger Mark 11 in a 338 WM for a friend for groups, and it had somewhere around 8lbs trigger. They don't have much of a but pad either. I could get 5 rounds under 1/2' @ 100yds and out of the box. We end up using 200gr Nosler BT. @ 3230fps with on load. I had to work at it to get the rifle to go off and not pull the shot. I finely took his rifle in in had a trigger up into it. Much better, still kicked, but accurate. A couple of years later, he sold the rifle to me. I had a muzzle brake put on it, and that tamed the rifle down. Use in Africa, 4 one shot kills. I am having HOWA being built but in a 26" barrel. I want to see if I can get the velocity up some more.
