@Kopmana That's a nice unit, expect broken bulls. Get a map that has placenames on it, I like www.gameplannermaps.com , there are a lot of little pockets and canyons to investigate. PM me if you have any questions.
Not many fleas on the 338 RUM and it's a good fit for bullets in the 250-265 range. You should be able to send those 2900fps maybe a little more from a tube that length. Load them long with H1000 or similar and you'd have a nice handy rifle. The recoil will be snappy but tolerable with a good...
After ~20 years of tinkering with ceramic stones, ovens, grills, gas, wood, and charcoal I have settled on using a Cast iron Speed Steel from NerdChef. In the oven under a high broiler a pizza is done in about 3.5 minutes. On my gas grill it's about 6 min and I can add a little wood to get the...
Should have my Howa mini on Tuesday. have 200 Lapua 6.5 Grendel brass. 108 Elite hunters, 95 vld, 65 and 75gr vmax along with LVR, CFE223, 8208, AA2220 and likely a few other powders on hand that will work. Prairie dogs likely first on the hit list.

300wm is one of my favorite cartridges, awesome for long range hunting. I haven't seen a lot of 300wm ammo on the shelves lately tho, maybe it's different where you are. So unless you're a reloader; buy what you find ammo for. That's the reality we're in right now. But if you can get 5-6...
A target at 500 yards viewed through a 10x scope should appear as the same target viewed with the naked eye at 50 yards. 500/10=50.
Plenty of archers and marksmen can make a 50 shot with no magnification.
I use a 21x scope to shoot man sized targets beyond 2000 yards. It works good for me.
