RE: Which New Toy
Well got the new toy. Went with the model 70 featherweight .300wsm. Heres the bad news. Got the gun home took it out of box to place mounts rings and scope on it. Was looking it over and worked the bolt and tried to place rifle on safe. And surprise tha safty wouldnt move at all. Called winchester and its on its way to winchester for repair. Cant beleave the factory let a gun ship out with the safty not working. Well lets see how long it takes to get it back. Also I dont think the .300WSM will do anything that several of my other guns wont do I just wanted a pretty new toy,LOL

RE: Which New Toy
what about the micro hunter from brwoning or any of the brwoning's in the new WSM's???? i would go with a 270WSM as a good whitetail caliber. just look at the ballistics of the 130gr. bullet!
but like greg with 7mm mag said.. i am gonna wait to see if they do come out with the 358WSm or the 338WSM |
RE: Which New Toy
No offense was intended 3DNWV, I was just trying to point out that all the new rounds that have been brought out in the last few years won't do anything different that all the old rounds can't do as well. I certainly respect the desire for new toys though. I get a bad case of it once a year or so.

RE: Which New Toy
I know I have several of the new calibers or have tried them but it seems like always go to my beat up Ruger 77 tang safty 30-06. Just keeps making one shot kills. But boy is that 70 featherweight pretty now if they can just get it to work right.<img src=icon_smile_angry.gif border=0 align=middle>
