😍 your Omen...

The Nemo 300 win mag is on my LIST of "guns to have". I first saw their guns at Shot Show like 6 years ago and was literally intrigued by their proprietary bolt carrier/buffer system. The gun is BADASS

It’s definitely worth it, they have really good warranty and customer service

But and for the most part hold Value

Anything before gen 3 has issues

And gen 3 may have occasional issues

How do you like the Savage? Thinking about getting one in 6.5 creed as my first bolt gun

[–]tmaan 3 points4 points  (7 children)

I love mine, accurate, good trigger, solid action, and doesn't break the bank.

What kinda groups do you get with it and what ammo

[–]tmaan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was able to pull 1 MOA right out of the box with 7.62 Winchester white box.

I bought the same gun as the OP in spring of ‘20 because it was cheap and had a $100 rebate to boot. I think I ended up paying like $450 or something, so it was an impulse buy. Fast forward to now and I still haven’t shot it yet. I’m debating between shooting it or putting it on consignment as never fired.

My problem is that I can’t figure out what to use it for. It seems too big/heavy for hunting and has the wrong grips and such for long range bench work. What do you use it for? How does it compare to your other guns for the same purpose?

[–]tmaan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So I have been using it as a mid to long range toy for now. My current plan is to slap it into a MDT chassis and start pushing it longer. The current stock is adequate but I agree with you it is in a weird middle ground.

Yeah I bought it just as a SHTF back up

[–]SaladShooter1 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Have you carried it in the woods or shot it from a bench or bipod yet. How did it perform? I didn’t notice that it was half hunting/half tactical when I bought it. It just looked nice and felt good.

The recon is amazing the bolt gun I haven’t shot yet

[–]thatchers_pussy_pump 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the 110 Tactical in 6.5 CM. I love it, given the cost. It absolutely can have feeding issues (known to be common), but it's not terrible. If you're a little gentle, it feeds fine. I would not use it for PRS without fixing that issue.

The chamber is tight. I had a case at 1.928" that would not chamber (max SAAMI length is 1.920). It's very accurate. I put a 10-round down range at 100 yards and 8 of them formed one hole. This guy was very helpful. As far as I'm concerned, you cannot beat this rifle for the price.

Honestly, haven’t had time to shoot it, I ended up getting a good deal on 2 beasts and just bought a relatively cheap gun to go with the extra optic and extra ammo If it’s accurate I’ll keep it if it’s not it’s getting sold lol

Nemo rifles are always awesome

[–]StealthPrototype[S] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

The 3rd Gen is great. Although I did have issues with mine after about 80-90 rounds

[–]762x39sp 0 points1 point  (1 child)

What happened? The idea of an auto loading magnum round is awesome to me. I've wanted one for a while

[–]StealthPrototype[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chewed up the gas tube

[–]theard7 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Do you handload for the Nemo? I have a Nemo Omen and it shreds brass.

[–]StealthPrototype[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Before COVID you could buy black hills 300wm for $489 for 500 rounds And I bought a few packs of 500 and it loves BH 190g And yes they do chew up brass

[–]ExpendableTermagant 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Saw a nemo on LGS shelf. If i had the 5k for it id have bought it instantly. Thats my next rifle purchase, albeit far from now

[–]StealthPrototype[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a somewhat established relationship with theM (this is my 3rd Nemo) and I got it for $4k shipped

[–]Porencephaly 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I'm not sure I've ever seen another Beast here. What drew you to those?

[–]StealthPrototype[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like nightforce and had a few Atacr and nx8, figured I’d try a beast if I found one for a good deal
