FYI - I think Sako makes the 30-378 in their TRG rifle.

I have fired a trg-s in 30-378 and found the recoil much harsher than my 300ultramags.The trg-s seems to pass a lot of recoil to the shooter compared to other rifles.

i have the sako trg-s in 7.82 lazzeroni warbird. a honey of a rifle. but, backtracking, a 7 stw is a great cartridge for reaching out and touching something but it's a bear finding ammo in out of the way places. for what you've stated your rifle is intended for, i'd save the bucks and get a remington 700 mountain rifle in 280.

But it's easier finding 280 ammo is that what your saying?

Swampman, where I live it is pretty hard to find 280 ammo of any sort although a lot of guys around here shoot them. Gun stores in Alabama are pretty well stocked I have been finding out.
