I'm just too old to care whether anybody else agrees with me or not.

Probably in the same ;) age group and I know what you're saying but for me, its not agreement or disagreement I'm looking for. Rather, its the info via the expertise, experience and knowledge of many here on site, to :) fill the voids in what I have.

im not that old but still agree that we can share the best of what we have and make it works for all of us.

9.3x62 or whatever caliber actions is the bond that link us.
 
I never hunted for bears, ever shot at a bear yet! Meat taste good usually! Just not a bear hunter I guess!

Last go around with the 250 nosler accubond and varget I was getting about 2” groups at 100y. I can get sub MOA with my 35 Whelen and 200gr ttsx or 225gr sierras.

I was hoping to get right at 1 inch groups close to 2600fps. I am looking for accuracy as I will take longer shots if presented. I have taken mountain goat with my Whelen just shy of 400 yards and moa accuracy gives me that confidence.

I want the grizz hunt to return so badly. It’s been a dream to harvest one but never was lucky to get a draw.

That’s a good point

When this came out about 10 years ago I swapped it for varget in a 6 DASHER and it worked wonderfully

Thank you for reminding me , now that varget is scarce I will try it on 9.3x62

you need to try. a good bear chili or gulasz will have a good point on morale if needed ...

Like I said, hate lots of bear roasts, ham, gulasz(a good friend of ours that is from Czecho, got a few bears over the years and we always were happy to eat some!!
 
Here is my custom by Gary Flach

Winchester m70 action
Custom sights
Wildcat stock
Talley QUick detach rings
Leupold 2.5-8x36
Barrel length is 22”. ER Shaw

I need to change the scope out. I like the 2.5-8 but the body is so short that on 8x I really have to torque my head forward for a good sight picture. My LOP is 14 1/4” I got ape arms for a guy that’s only 5’ 11”. The rifle itself is perfect. A little over 6lbs without the scope
