Evening all
I seem to be going in circles so ideas welcome please. I am after a 300 win mag rifle, mainly for trips to Scotland and hopefully overseas at some point. I prefer fluted barrels and synthetic stainless build. I am a 308 user but thinking about a mid weight rifle for win mag to help with recoil but be portable enough for the hill. I always use a mod and heard good reports on Atec Hertz. Owned CZ, Tikka, Sako and RPA upto and including 308 but never 300 win mag. Found all sorts of issues with various rifle options on web, mainly with mag feeds on long action calibres. I only use factory ammo.
Latest thinking is maybe Mauser M12 / extreme. Sauer entry models look a bit basic and no experience of. Budget new £1500 max. Prefer to buy new and shoot in barrel myself, old school I know but works for me. Thanks in advance.
