    300 WM Scope Recommendation

    I just got a Tikka T3X 300 WM. Now I am shopping for a scope. Would like turrets to adjust the scope for longer shots if necessary. Started looking at the VX6 and some Nightforce. I've heard better things about Leupold's customer service. What magnification should I be looking at for...

    I have been in the market for a rifle to use for elk. I have narrowed it down to 300 win mag, 300 WSM, and 7 mag. The 7 mag and 300 win mag seem to have ammo readily available. I have had a hard time finding 300 WSM ammo and seem limited in my choices when I do find any ammo. I have came...

    Calibers Ballistically Similar to the 300 WM/WSM

    I'm in the market for a new rifle. I have been leaning towards a 300 WM or WSM. It seemed like the obvious caliber and one that I consistently hear about from articles and YouTube videos. Is there a caliber out there that is ballistically similar to the 300 that wouldn't have the intense recoil?

    Hey Y'all, I am in the market for a .300 Win Mag. I have narrowed it down to a Tikka T3X Lite or the Sako Finnlight. I have read that Sako's can be picky about the ammo you shoot and that I should consider shooting the Sako Brand Ammo. I have also read that Sako's components are of higher...
