338 Federal!

blargon is right, it can be switched for a left hand cheekpiece if you wanted to. as far as I know the cheekpieces havent ever shown up in Canada yet
 
If you get the Optilocks, make sure you get the Extra-Low rings. Still lots of room under my VXIII 2.5-8.

There's so many jagged edges around the outline of that gun you could cut a tree down with it! :eek: :p
 
Well I just finished up 25 cartridges. .308 brass necked up, CCI primers and IMR 3031 powder, 5 shots each going up 1 grain at a time. One of these years I'll get out to the range and give it a rip.

In the mean time, it's cold in there. Gotta keep my feet warm. :D

just got back from trying some test loads in my Sako with the 215 grain Sierra GameKing. With H4895 I got up to 2645 fps. I will load some more up and test for groups next time. Also tried some 185 TSX @ 2700 fps over 46.5 grs H4895, shot around 1.5" 5 shot @ 100y.

Shooting prone out the back of my truck in some gravel pit..gun range is still closed :(
