HUMMM?
Very interesting read,Vinootz. The rifle I have never herd of but sounds cool. BUT I think I have to lean toward what I have. Rem 700, 8mm rem mag, I get little better performance then a 325. I do wish I had a 26" barrel on it.

i use to hunt with a guy that had a 300 AI with a 32 inch barrel. He liked it and said it gave him 150 FPS faster and less muzzle rise.
It was a SS tube and I could see it when he moved from 600 yards away. Might also reduce recoil. Wonder why there are not more barrels over 24"?

?They do? I thought they all disappeared! I may have to fill a niche. The 8's have always been lacking in popularity. Never understood why either. Maybe that Winny made the 338 and had great marketing at the time it just got overlooked as a funky "Euro" style thing?

Back in the day It was the "IN" thing. People now still feel a hunting rifle needs to be 24". That and weight I would supposes. Most "NEW" rifles ordered new can be with 26" barrels.
