All hail the 300MTN!

Because I also have it's exact twin wearing the same scope in original condition

Now that's just greedy, butcher a limited production quality rifle just because you have two. You need to learn to share, your parents didn't do a very good job in your upbringing.

Nice little rifle, but really you could have started with an SPS or old BDL or something other than a 700 Classic. Do you have the original stock, PM me if you do.

thanks for fagging up my thread.

I have one of those 700 Classics in 300 Savage.
It is in all original trim.
But it has turned out to be one of the most accurate factory rifles I have seen.
150 partition chased by 45 grains of RL 15 gets me 2800+ and usually right
around ½ moa for three shots at 100M
I would not butcher it, but to each his own.
Should be a very "handy" rifle for specific areas.

Its a Rem 700, they were made to be butchered...

 

[quarterman]

nice rifle, good to see it in a classic caliber

 

[tylerjwitty]

its a rem they were never built to stay orginal..

300m: 3 x 130ttsx, bracketing the centre between dots 1 & 2 on the LR Duplex.

Turns out 130gr bullets do kill moose! Frontal shot from 125y, entered through right shoulder/upper leg bone, destroyed lungs, exit back left ribs.

Excellent! It's too bad Savage has dropped the .300 and .250 from their lineup.

 

[EastBranch]

Just makes the special runs even better!

Long ways to the nearest mountain my Delta friend. But it looks like that Dog will hunt. Nothing like "East of the East of the East" moose.

Rotten bastage!

Great choice on cartridge - a forgotten hero of hunting, the father of the .308 Win.

Nice rifle, the whole point of going custom is getting what you want, when what you need doesn't exist.

An update, the two other fine bulls that have fallen to the MTN:

Aug 2013, 130ttsx 1x @ 90y: neck/spine pass through

Dec 2014, 130ttsx 2x @ 140y: 1 pass through lungs, 1 through both shoulder blades, recovered under off side hide
