huntnh, the .270 didn't make the list because I already have a .270
P.S. the .270 is my Fav caliber. LOL

I just wanted to get everyones thoughts on the Calibers I'm considering for my next rifle.
I LOVE the .30-06 especially for it's cartridge options but I'm leaning more towards the .300 Win Mag.
Between Remington and Federal factory loads It has decent ammo coverage with 130, 150, 160, 165, 180, 190 and 200 gr. bullets
Decisions, Decisions, Decisions :wallbash: :wallbash:

Ronn I can also get you that Tikka t3 "lite" Bolt in .270 wsm for $504.00 but that's the Synthetic stock not the Walnut stock,,, If you're Interested I'll send you a link.
that price is good till Nov. 30 2009

 

[BruceBruce1959]

just sent you a private message ronn... Good Luck

 

[BruceBruce1959]

Well my new Rifle has arrived BUT apparently Mossberg updated the 2008 model by adding the LBA adjustable trigger assembly to the 2009 models Well as luck would have it I got shipped a 2008 model (no adjustable trigger) but after I contacted Mossberg to get the scoop they were very appologetic and understanding and are going to make the necessary changes to my new rifle So it's all good I just have to send it to them and should have it back within a week or so.

 

[BruceBruce1959]

I havent decided yet ronn, I'll probably go with a mid-line Nikon but not sure yet.

 

[BruceBruce1959]

No I haven't got it back yet. I just called and the person who's handling my rifle wasn't in but left a message for him to call or email me so I can find out whats what. I'll let ya know soon as I hear anything.
