GIVE IT A REST DRIFT,
All you cry about is recoil recoil,
Like I said earlier, I hear Daisy has a great gun out there.
LAPPER, (the reason this thread exists)

I JUST WON A SAKO TRG-S 30-378 . CAN ANY BODY GIVE ME INFORMATION ON THIS GUN AND CALIBER. IS IT A GUN I SHOULD HOLD ON TO, OR SHOULD I TRY TO SELL IT? WHAT KIND OF GAME WOULD IT BE GOOD FOR ? THANK YOU FOR YOUR INPUT.
Question 1: It is a 378 case necked down to a 30 cal bullet. It has the best ballistics out there on a 30 cal gun.
Question 2: If you want a long range gun and can afford to shoot it then hold on to it. Ammo $60-100 per box. If you are broke then sell it. If you got a jingle in your pocket put a good scope on it and let er fly. It will be a lot of fun shooting it and practicing at long ranges. It does have some kick, if it doesn't have a muzzle brake, put one on it. A 270 kicks more than that will WITH A BRAKE. Game ears in the field for any gun. The muzzle blast is a breeze of air that you will feel. If you're and idiot (drift) and stand next right next to the barrel then it will blow you over.
Question 3: You can kill any big game in NA with it. I am taking my Weatherby 30-378 mule deer hunting. Too much gun maybe. At 4-600 yds: NO: I am practicing weekly at long ranges.
Hope this helps
