Most accurate back country rifle ?

[birdwacker]

It had contact on the right side at the tip of the stock wasn't even contact. the rest of the barel floated . thats all could have been a slight warpage in the stock . Every rifle i've had has been floated with good results . on a quick two or three shot sequence i'm sure it wasn't enough to cause an issue . I wasn't looking to modify it just found the erratic contact while cleaning and loc tighting the screws and checking for any saftey issues . i'm sure wheatherby didn't intend the contact I was seeing on the stock . Overall very pleased with the craftsmanship of the rifle. I couldn't blieve how light the stock is on this rifle . gonna be carefull not to store it with wieht on the fore end.

  I'm sure your going to like how it shoots.

I'm sure thanks birdwacker. The resurch I've done on free floating from shooting experts , that on barells lees than number three contour wheatherby doesn't float . they also say that they re comend free floating simply for long range shoots where the slightest contact can cause a shot to sail' . Tikka floats there light weight barells and they shoot very well. so honestly it may not help any but i don't think it will effect the accuracy adversely either .

It looks like I'm gonna have to pull a multi season permit gotta get the use outta some of these rifles and I just can't give up the sharp sticks . i've just about completed my gun safe . here's the coverage and cals . .17hmr savage bull barell, ruger m77 .260, mark v ultra light .270, rem 700 custom long range 6.5x284. and a sako trg in 30-378. , still have my mauser 98 from when i was a kid (sentimental) I'd like to ad a big bore in the future but africa is not in the cards in the near future so i still have time . I've had many rifles but will say this group should cover most any hunters needs. WHATS YOUR SET ?

Coach,  I just googled the sako trg in 30-378.  I have the Weatherby 30-378 but would love to have the detacheable mag and trigger upgrade.  Do you know if what you have is a upgraded base model or do you have to buy it that way from Sako only.  Am I even making sense?

pretty sure the sako trg 22 is only .308 and the trg 42 is only .300wm and .338lm. they don't offer a .30-378.

well i stand corrected ...i'm so caught up in the current and future market that i never check old discontinued models haha, honestly didn't know about this older trg, I've never heard anybody talk about it, it's always the trg 42....little different looking than my trg that's for sure! 30-378 would be a cool caliber to still have around though. although with the lapua tossed in there's not really any point.
