| Well this is going to depend on your budget as well and also if you're wanting a custom or factory. IMHO the Remmy XCR will hold up to pretty much anything you throw at it, and it's currently chambered for all of those rounds. These rifles are accurate right out of the box and are incredibly tough. Now, the bad part, these rifles are push feed and do not feature the non-rotating claw extractor found on Winchesters, Mausers and Springfield 1903's, to name a few. This feature is called controlled feed, at all times the round is controlled by the rifle, while the Remington pops them up and they sit uncontrolled inside of the action until they enter the chamber. I'd say if you're after dangerous game, stick with a controlled feed rifle, even take a look at Ruger as they offer some incredible rifles. If you're after non-dangerous game, push feed will be perfectly fine. Good luck!

| Buy a stainless CRF late-model 70 in 375 H&H and rebore it to the RUM.

| My preference is the model 70 classic stainless in 375H&H, it is lightwieght for caliber, has good iron sights, has a matte finish, and not to expensive, especially if you can find a used one. These are/ were good rifles for the money. R.
