i have been a gun nut for a long time and have used alot of different calibers and rifles over the years. but for the last few years i hunt every thing with my old 30/06. its a big ring mauser with an ackley barrel,timney trigger,and a leupold 3.5x10. its not very pretty but it shoots great and hits were i aim.

Kinda partial to my Stevens 200 in .243 right now. The last four deer have been shot between 300 and 400yds. A very accurate rifle. Put a world of hurt on gophers this summer with it too.

I have a Rem Model 7 S/S in 7-08. Absolutely LOVE it. Got a Nikon 3-9x40 on it, pushing 140 partition pills. Confident I can do anything inside 300 yards with it. It has spent many good days afield with me.

My favorite rifle is my Husky 3006
also gonna use my vintage .311 Canadian Mag
Back in 1989 there was an artical in B.C. Outdoors about a new experimental caliber.In 1990 an updated artical about the ballistics.
I had this cal made back in 91-92 this is the first of the so called Ultra Mags made. This is a Sako with a 28 inch hart barrel.
It's a 404 Jeffrey neck to a .311 bullet.
You want to see some ballistics this thing rocks.Because of the barrel
length it's not a practical hunting rifle.Although one can do it.
The guy who developed this caliber wanted to try something different
and this was the result.He mentioned he wanted to test a 7 mm and .30 after. 9 -11 years later came the Lazz's and Weatherbys and
Remington.
