Benelli LUPO BE.S.T - 300 Win Mag - 24.0" - Optifade Open Country Rifle:

Benelli's LUPO bolt-action rifle has been field-tested on hunts across the globe and found to be a truly exceptional firearm. Not only has it delivered sub-MOA accuracy and decisive on-game performance, but hunters also rave about ergonomic and customization features that make it fit like it was made just for them. From the threaded muzzle to the recoil mitigating Combtech cheek pad, the LUPO is packed with Benelli features and technology shooters praise and declare unrivaled among hunting rifles. The LUPO is now available with Benelli's exclusive industry-leading BE.S.T. surface treatment and is available in three popular big-game calibers.

Precision Accuracy
The LUPO features a precision Crio-treated free-floating barrel attached to a hardened-steel barrel extension that is bedded to a steel block in the alloy receiver. The result is precision sub-MOA accuracy. . . shot-after-shot.

Recoil Reduction
The Benelli LUPO tames recoil with a patented built-in Progressive Comfort system and a Combtech cheek pad. The trigger is crisp and with an adjustable trigger-pull weight. Further fit adjustments can be made by using the included length-of-pull spacers. Optional fit choices include extra-high and standard cheek pad styles and one optional-length butt pad. Finger reach to the trigger is also adjustable with included spacers which can be placed between the receiver and the stock.

Ergonomics & Adjustability
The shape of the Benelli LUPO has been optimized for control. The chassis-style configuration of a separate stock, receiver and forend allow the shooter to customize the LUPO to one of 36 drop and cast stock positions with the included shims. Finger reach to the trigger is also adjustable with included spacers which can be placed between the receiver and the stock. The ambidextrous top safety is easy to access. Airtouch Grip surfaces allow for a safe and firm hold on the rifle.

Detachable Box-Type Magazine
The detachable box magazine is a double-stack configuration with a partial divider that loads like a single stack. Cartridges can be easily loaded with the magazine removed, or smoothly top loaded with the magazine in place, holding 5 rounds without heavy spring pressure. The LUPO cutaway bolt works with the magazine, allowing the magazine to insert fully into the receiver without protruding from the bottom of the gun.

300 Winchester Mag:

The .300 Winchester Magnum (also known as .300 Win Mag or 300WM) (7.62x67mm) is a popular, belted, bottlenecked magnum rifle cartridge that was introduced by Winchester Repeating Arms Company in 1963 as a member of the family of Winchester Magnum cartridges. The .300 Winchester Magnum is a magnum cartridge designed to fit in a standard length action. It is based on the .375 H&H Magnum, which has been blown out, shortened, and necked down to accept a .30 caliber (7.62 mm) bullet.

The .300 Winchester is extremely versatile and has been adopted by a wide range of users including hunters, target shooters, military units, and law enforcement departments. Hunters found the cartridge to be an effective all-around choice with bullet options ranging from the flatter shooting 165 grain to the harder hitting 200+ grain selections available from the factory. The .300 Win Mag remains the most popular .30 caliber magnum with American hunters, despite being surpassed in performance by the more powerful .300 Weatherby Magnum and the newer .300 Remington Ultra Magnum. It is a popular selection for hunting moose, elk, and bighorn sheep as it can deliver better long range performance with better bullet weight than most other .30 caliber cartridges. Military and law enforcement departments adopted the cartridge for long range sniping and marksmanship. As a testament to its accuracy, since its introduction it has gone on to win several 1,000-yard (910 m) competitions

Suggested Use:

Deer (long range)
Black Bear (long range)
Sheep / Goat (long range)
Moose
Elk
Buffalo / Bison

Performance:

The Winchesters factory ammunition for the .300 Winchester Magnum is capable of 3,260 feet per second (990 m/s) with the 150-grain (9.7 g) bullet and 3,000 ft/s (910 m/s) with the 180-grain (12 g) bullet. The maximum point blank range for the 150 gr (9.7 g) bullet is 318 yards (291 m) yards when zeroed at 270 yards (250 m). The maximum point blank range for the 180 gr (12 g) bullet is 300 yards when zeroed at 254 yards (232 m). The ability to zero the .300 Winchester Magnum and shoot without hold over to 300 yards (270 m) makes the cartridge one of the flatter shooting cartridges.
