You're gonna love it. 190 VLD and IMR-7828 are the go-to in my 300 shorty. Although mine is the Trophy hunter, it shoots less than .5moa at 400 if I do my part and killed two bears this spring, both one shot kills. Yardages weren't anything to brag about, 80 and 140, but bullet performance was pretty spectacular. I'm leaving tomorrow for my fall bear hunt, and the .338 is staying home. I'll be packing the WSM. I'm running the Viper 6.5-20x50 mil/mil on mine and have no complaints. You can order the 1.5# spring for the trigger from Savage customer service for a couple of bucks, I usually order 10 at a time. Replacement only takes a couple of minutes.
