So far this year all I've gotten is a nice meat bull caribou in the 1st season with my Kimber 338 Win mag. 250 gr8 Core Lokt factory soft point. Unit 13. Blew apart my left rotator cuff on March 30 of this year. Had complete reattachment surgery on April 29. Started framing our house June 10. Haven't shot two hundred rounds of ammo thru everything combined. Since March. Left arm is mostly recovered. It wasn't as good as it is now when I shot the bou. Tried for a brain shot and messed that up. Then dumped him with a shoulder shot. Nice thing about the Kimber Montana in 338. Its light. But my left arm wasn't fully there at that point. Still, I only lost about 3 lbs of meat. Nice thing about a relatively tough bullet on a softer animal. Not much blood shock.

Still waiting for my bfr 475. Looks like Mid January before it'll come according to customer service. They said April for the #5 in 500L!! Anyway it's one buck for the crossbow, one doe with a k38, one doe and two pigs with the fa 353. 155 rnfp 5.7gr universal in 38. And 180 wfn max 300mp for 1735fps in the 353. Sure wouldn't shoot those in a S&W!

Now my local shop has called them finally again and left them a message and they saying that they haven't contacted them back yet. Ya for me sence I contacted magnum reaserch and they said its a 6 to seven month wait for for that cal. So basically if they mest up I have waited nine months on it and if and when they get it straightened out it will be 6 more months. Yaaaaaa .

I ordered mine from the Custom shop in April. The #5 in 500L just got ordered in November. Thinking about trying to find a 500jrh on gunbroker or somewhere after Christmas. Just found a Taurus 66 in a lgs for a decent price. Ot a little end shake but otherwise locking up good. Shoots decent enough for a $300 gun.
