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

This "Game Breaker" is a darn nice rifle, with the recoil of maybe a .410 and certainly much less than my BP Xpress.

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

It's dead on where our Rem 700 based guns start at... http://www.diablocustomrifles.com/factory-action-rifles



You don't have to purchase one. They're selling very well from what I understand. Its price is also in the ball park with other custom rifle builders.
