Might be a stupid question, but here goes.
I’ve drawn a 1st rifle tag in Colorado this fall. Been a while since I’ve rifle hunted for elk.
Narrowed the choices down to 2, a 673 in 300 saum or a Model 70 in 325 wsm.
The 300 is shooting a 168 TSX at 2825, getting a 1 1/2” group. It handles the best, is a couple oz lighter and is a shorter rifle.
The 325 is shooting a 200 Partition at 2825, getting a 3/4” group. It handles well and is not bad to carry.
Both are wearing Leupold glass.
Which one would you take? Southern Colorado, shots can range from 75-350 yards.
Thanks for your input.
