Ultiamte Firearms "Game Breaker" .450 Bushmaster
I have an Ultimate Firearms Inc. "Game Breaker" that I've only shot a few factory .450 Bushmaster rounds from. I haven't reloaded CF ammunition in decades, being a dedicated muzzleloader shooter.
The rifle has a Leupold VX6, 3-18 scope and I chose the 3 shot magazine over the 5. This rifle shoots excellent with outstanding accuracy with factory ammunition. I loaded up my first box of .450 Bushmaster with Federal 205 primers, 37.9grs LilGun and the Hornady 250gr. FTX bullet. Fortunately I had another shooter help with the setup. This morning it was cool enough to try my first reloads for the "Game Breaker" and it worked out well. I do have to say, Ken Johnston makes excellent rifles, not just muzzleloaders. http://ultimatefirearms.com/ Range: 150 yards....... 3-shot group |
Looks like a nice piece. Too bad we can't use them here in Illinois. Maybe next year the Straight Wall cartridge rifles will be allowed. Of course if that were to happen, I have me some .444 medicine for some of these old girls around here and maybe a couple of the old boys :) I like my old stump thumper :)

Seems like a mighty high price for a rebuilt Rem 700. Impressive accuracy with the punkin balls, but $2500 could go a long ways towards something else.

It fits the bill for those states that now allow straight walled cases to 1.8" where shotguns were only allowed before. |

Once you go custom, you never want to go back.

"Custom" is one thing. "Over priced custom" is another. $2500 before optics for a blue printed R700, c'mon...

It's dead on where our Rem 700 based guns start at... http://www.diablocustomrifles.com/factory-action-rifles |
Wonder if they would be legal in NY?

What barrel length did you choose and have you chronographed anything yet?
