I've shot one a LOT from early 80's till now. It is by far my favorite deer KILLING calibre. I shoot 125gr Nosler Partition handloads, Flat shooting, hard hitting, mild recoil. My wife shoots it a good bit too.
257's 100gr ttsx reloads are screeching fire monsters and kill deer harder than EHD.
I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

My main big gun is a tang safety ruger m77 .264 win mag and it’s one that i’ll never part with. It’s got a big heavy long barrel helps a lot with the recoil you’ll hear a lot about how hot it it is but ain’t much hotter than most win mags.
Ive shot hand loads out of mine mostly but gots some nosler accubonds at cabela’s on sale for $43 a while back

handloading is the only way to go with a 264WM. Factory loads are usually 140 or 160. A 100-125 premium bullet makes it a death ray.
