That is definitely quite nice to have load options that impact so close to each other. Fingers crossed for the 350 gr load

Beautiful rifle Toby, congrats! Is this the rifle you are taking to Zim? How bad is the recoil?

Thanks! Yes, this is the one, and only rifle I'm taking. Recoil is stout, but controllable with the 400 gr bullets. Definitely a step up from a 375. But, shooting it offhand is a breeze. Once I sight in off the bench, I try to shoot from field positions when practicing. Recoil isn't bad at all then.

This rifle is now for sale. I've decided to go all in on the Blaser R8 for my big game hunting. It would take $3150 to reproduce this rifle.
Asking price is $2500.00

I had this rifle in the classifieds and it's been marked Sold PF since last week. I forgot to do the same here. Sorry for any confusion.

I'm unfortunately on a diet. Presently in VA hospital as Agent Orange finally caught up with me. Cancer and I no longer can speak. If all goes well I'll be out of here and back home in Thailand by end of July. Tough road but I'm a tough old guy. I'll make it that hunt.
