OK I started a thread asking for some load recommendations for my newly purchased M70 300wm. And I bought some factory ammo,since I hadn't bought dies yet,to try it out.
Federal standard ammo gave me about a 4" group at 100 yards. Every once in a while it would hit perfect.
So I bought some expensive Hornady ammo,as I have always had very good luck with every other caliber I have bought Hornady in.
Same thing happened, 4" goups
And I had a remington 308 that I could touch holes so it wasn't all me.I'm guessing it was shot out.Used by a real hunter,lol
Now I have decided to just buy a new 300WM. I have looked at a few different rifles,Ruger American,Winchester sporter,Remingtons selection and in the past I have owned a Tikka.
Savage is the only rifle brand (yes I know how accurate they can be) I'm not sure I want.
I'm not completely opposed to Savage or the Ruger American but I won't mind if I pay around $2k,either
I want a perfect shooter.I want it to be MY FAULT I don't hit something.And I am pretty sure I can keep up with most rifles at the 100yd range,at least
So what's your favorite? Sako,Tikka,Remington,Browning,Winchester? Step up the a Christianson class?
Walnut and blue over stainless and plastic
