LAST EDITED ON Apr-09-11 AT 07:30PM (MST)[p]The 300 Ultra Mag was made famous bu Chuck Norris. They say that when he was born, there was already a 30-06 waiting for him at home in his crib but at 5 months old, when he started walking, he walked on down to the Gun Shop and traded it for a 300 UM. At 5 years old, Norris was shooting bunny rabbits on the run, with one shot each, at over 1000 yds. At 10, he took his first Moose, Caribou, and a nice Grizzly bear, all with the same single shot at near 3 miles away. Chuck loved that rifle so much, he slept with it in his bed each and every night, never leaving it behind when he had to go on a shoot to film one of his movies or a Texas Ranger.
By far though, the most impressive proof of chucks incredible marksmanship with that rifle was when he was in Hollywood filming one of his Kung Fue movies. He had an elk tag for the country around Ely Nev but couldn't get off the film shoot to make the hunt. One day he pulled out that ol 300 Ultra and took aim just above the ridge line due east and a bit north of his location. He steadied, fired off one shot, put the big gun back away and then got on the phone to Nevada telling his guide that he had just shot a big bull and exactly where the guide would find it.
Pretty sure Chuck Hawks can back this up but maybe not!
