Need an new Elk Gun!

[solidstars43]

It’s hard to go wrong with a Tikka T3X in .308. Tons of ammo options, can find it anywhere, and it has plenty of power for elk especially if it’s inside of 200 yards.

Look at a stainless version as it’s a little more weather resistant.

EVERYONE wants a suppressor...it's just not gonna happen. Money and other things involved. People can preach it all day, but for some, its not happening. I need two guns.



It's a pickle for sure but I have some time so I'm in research mode.

can afford to "need" two guns but cant afford a suppressor? Can you afford a scope to mount and bullets to shoot it?

Whats the pickle?

WTS Thread 'Rem 700 LSS 300 RUM'

Yesterday at 11:58 AM

This Remington model 700 Laminated Stock/Stainless is in excellent condition and is bone stock except for the addition of a Sims Limbsaver recoil pad, which has a very noticeable effect on the taming of recoil. The original owner who is a local friend of mine fired less than a box of ammo without ever hunting it, and I ended up firing about 40 rounds through the rifle and taking it on one hunt.

After drawing a Oryx tag on the White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico, I had Leupold set me up with a VX-3 4.5-14x40 with the duplex reticle and a custom turret for the Nosler Custom 200 grain...

...and I have a stockpile of the Nosler Custom Ammo that it's set up for, plus several boxes of other premium 300 RUM factory ammunition.

Had the same dilemma a few years ago. I went 300wm. I debated 300PRC, but during covid it was impossible to find ammo. Availability was a major factor in my decision. Although it is threaded, I don't run a suppressor or brake and find the recoil quite tolerable. Seekins PH2, rifle bare is 7.2, and with everything but the bipod, just a hair over 9.6 lbs. It's a tack driver and will do 1/2 moa if I do my job.
