I have a Browning Short-trac in 7 WSM, and it has no particularly bad habits. Not exactly a reloader’s dream with brass flying etc., but aside from problems with the original camo finish, since replaced by Browning after a class action lawsuit, it’s been a good rifle. I’d buy it again.

I’ve got a handsome.378 on a non Weatherby action that makes as much sense as anything. I’ve also got an HS Precision 416 Weatherby that’s crazy accurate, but that is braked, which is both good and bad for obvious reasons. My .500 A2 is awesome, but you really need to watch where you put your...

When a democracy devolves into two wolves and a sheep making dinner plans, a descent in anarchy and dictatorship isn’t far off. The Leftist playbook is simple: when in doubt, blame the victims.

I agree it’s certainly a buzzkill.

Why not just run .460 Weatherby brass with some Imperial sizing wax through your sizing die?

I did the dfw-Doha-wdh thing on Qatar last time, and thought it was the least bad way to make the trip. I’m sorry to see that option disappear, as it was a great way to avoid the SA firearms import process.

Why not an 8x65R?

At some point our gear becomes perfectly sufficient under normal conditions, and we’re free to allow other considerations, such as aesthetics, to enter into our decision making. While I appreciate titanium and carbon fiber for the most extreme conditions, there’s nothing wrong with a graceful...

This hog made it about 75 yards after a body hit with the 416, but there was a trail that a blind man could probably follow. Only a CNS hit guarantees a DRT reaction, and even that assumes perfect shot placement every time.

.416 Weatherby with 300 grain TSX bullets @ 2800 fps.

I loaded my .416 Weatherby with 300 grain TSX bullets @ 2800 fps. It's a light's out shooter, and the muzzle brake makes precision shooting possible without killing at both ends. I used it for an 80 yard shot on a croc rather than on PG, but the principle is the same.

For reference and anybody who finds this thread via a search engine: Side view of magnum magazines (type E and G) Top view showing the spacer installed in type G magazines

Unfortunately, they are long out of the M03 parts business. They have perhaps three or four odds and ends remaining, but are otherwise sold out. Mauser corporate publicly stated they would continue to support the M03 when it was discontinued, but that was entirely lip service as far as I've been...

That's actually not accurate. There are also magnum magazines with a spacer designed for .300 WM, 7mm RM, etc. Ask me how I know this ...

To those interested, I purchased 500/416 brass from Raven Rocks at a very reasonable price, and the order was filled expeditiously.

Does anyone have a line on a M03 375 or 458 Lott magazine? Inquiring minds want to know. :giggle:

I bought mine from CH4D as well.
