I shoot its bigger brother, the 340 Weatherby. Now THAT thing rattles your teeth..

I actually buy 300 Weatherby brass for it, its exactly the same brass as 340 but necked down, but normally the 300 brass is quite a bit cheaper. Stuff about 90 grains of your favorite powder behind a 250 Sierra, and be prepared to be impressed!
