330 Dakota

If it were legal, and given the chance there is positively nothing on this earth that I wouldn't shoot with it given the right ammunition.

I like the 7mm STW.But my real favorite is not on the list .The .264 Win. Mag.

haha Swamp, I knew someone would say the .264 win mag, I think you just like throwing a wrench in my polls. I kinda meant mag as magnum big game, and im sure youll say itll kill an elephant, but i wanted to keep the mags to 7mm+

LOL not messing with you .I always liked the 140 grain Hornady btsp.Been so long since I loaded for it I will have to look up what powder and how much.But I remember I had them smoking.I don't get the chance for anything but White tail or 'yotes.But I would not be afraid to hunt anything around but the big bears.

What's your fav .264 mag load? how big of game do you like it on? would you take it over another mag on elk/moose?

I knew the 7mm was popular but didn't know it was that popular. Course now there are the 7mm STW, RUM, is the 7mm RUM almost dead though? does everyone just get a 7mm STW if they want a big cased 7mm? Kinda like you either get a 7mm Rem Mag or 7mm STW?

Sorry swamp confused you with swampcollie, didn't read the sn close enough, I know you're being serious, just saying though you were him and kinda poking a jab just because you could.

The STW has just been around a lot longer. The RUM is acctually flatter shooting (faster). Infact, the 7 RUM has the flattest trajectory of any sporting cartridge... period. That title was of course, held by the STW previously. But there again, the STW has been around long enough to have gained a following. The Ultra Mags are just now taking a foothold in the last two or three years. The WSMs have been much more popular, even though they are about 5 years younger than Ultra Mags.

I'm really fond of the STW.I have one a friend built for me before he died.Had another that I traded to a guy on the site for a Sako 25-06.

300 WBY. Just because I have one (wife gave it to me as a Christmas present). Sako L691....really accurate rifle. Would probably be more so if I wasn't shooting it. :D
