The 308 is well suited for deer sized game out to extended ranges. My 180gr handloads are on par with 30-06 factory loads. For heavy game I use a heavier caliber.

Fantastic rifle for the money! It has controlled round feed and a pretty decent adjustable trigger. :cool:

Zastava M70 .308 Win. stainless synthetic -

20" barrel. I load 250gr bullets at 2300 fps MV, or 310gr bullets at 2100 fps MV :) -

Here's my 358 takedown BLR with a Leupold 2.5x Scout scope :cool: -

Very cool cartridge! The 358 can be loaded with 310gr bullets at around 2100 fps MV. For use on heavy game, it offers a lot more wallop and penetration out to 150 yards compared to the 308 loaded with 180gr bullets.

It sure is a real nice rifle, here's mine :cool: -

When installing a scope, I first set the scope windage and elevation adjustments at mid point. Then I install the scope and use the elevation adjustment on the rear ring to bore sight it (on a Remington 700 or 798, for example, which have this feature). A shim is sometimes needed under the...

It's the stainless laminate Grey Wolf.

Here's my Sako 85 .300 Win. mag., an accurate high quality rifle :cool: -

Here's my Survivor .45 Colt / .410 which I drilled and tapped for mounting a scope. I load the 300 gr Hornady XTP bullet to a muzzle velocity of about 1400 fps -

My Remington 799 has a Zastava mini-mauser barreled action. Consider the Leupold one piece mount for the 799 which is windage-adjustable -

I have a 7400 and 750 carbine, both in 35 Whelen. I've put several hundred rounds through the 7400 without any problems (except the bolt dust cover gets torn with use and needs replacement). The Timney trigger fix is recommended, it's a great improvement! :)

It's a Leupold Ultralight 2.5x. :)

Nice rifle. I have a Remington 799 7.62x39 which is a Zastava mini-mauser barreled action in a Remington laminate stock. Recommend keeping it clean if you are going to be feeding it surplus steel case ammo as it tends to leave lots of residue. I didn't keep my rifle very clean and I...

What a great round, I've had 3 rifles in this caliber and currently own 2. Sako makes a real nice .300 Win. mag., their model 85 Grey Wolf. This one is mine (and it don't kick hard - compared to my .458 Lott :D ) -

My 10/22 with a Ram-Line stock and Nikon Monarch 1.5x4.5 scope -

Regarding hot loads in a Handi-Rifle, in practical terms I found the spring extractor the limiting factor. It doesn't have enough force to eject cases after a certain point resulting in a stuck case that needs to be removed by knocking it out from the muzzle end with a cleaning rod or whatever.

I really like this rifle. It's accurate enough for close range hunting as a 45 Colt. As a .410 with the choke screwed in it's my grouse slayer. However, without the choke, it doesn't pattern worth a darn.

My H&R Survivor has a rifled barrel and is designed to fire both 45 Colt and .410. They say don't forget to remove the full choke if you're gonna fire a 45 Colt round. :eek: :D
