Default RE: Moose-Elk Rifle Caliber Choice

ORIGINAL: demoIL

I have a Kimber 338 with a VX III 3.5-10x40 and I tell you what.... What a nice setup and for a light gun it really don't kick all that bad.. I mean you can stand to shoot at least 3 rounds out of it without crying.. LOL J/K

Hey demoIL, I've just been looking at a model 8400 in .338, and here your post pops up. What are the odds?!!!

So, are you being facetious about the recoil? The weight specs on the 8400 seem like it's a bit lighter than I'd like (or than I think I'd like) for that caliber. I've always wondered about the whole "stock design vs. rifle weight" debate. So, if you had it to do over again, would you still go with the Kimber for .338?

Many Thanks!
