4:02 I lucked out in 2023, Scheels was selling off all their Norma Bondstrike in 30-06 for $1 a round. I got 200rds of it. Figured it’ll either be a good bullet to hunt with, or I can shoot it all and reload all that high quality Norma Brass.
@@echofoxtrotwhiskey1595 your probably right! My dad would have know since one of his best friend was a friend of John Nosler back in the 50’s and 60’s
Excellent overview of one sweet runner of a rifle. As a left handed shooter this and the Savage Impulse Big Game have me intrigued. Sadly the Beretta doesn’t come in the cartridges that I am most interested in, that being the the 300 WSM, 7 mm PRC or 280 AI, but it does come in 300 Win Mag which is in my Top 5 options for a western backcountry rifle and cartridge
I'm with you there... Euro rifles are often YEARS behind America in adopting new cartridges. Hopefully at least the 7mm PRC will eventually be available, but for now as you point out the .300 WM is a terrific option.
@@BackcountryHuntingPodcast yes they most certainly are YEARS behind the curve in adopting newer popular cartridges. Evidence by even the popular manufacturer of Tikka. Sadly they don’t offer a left handed 300 WSM with a muzzle brake just the SS T3X Lite, so before Shot Show they were running a rebate on their rifles and I was going to go with either the 300 WM or 7 REM Mag in their Roughtech Wideland model in left hand. But I waited to see if Tikka would bring a 7 mm PRC to market since they offer 6.5 PRC but they didn’t and I missed out on the opportunity for a rebate. Plus I saw that Bergara has the new B14 Sierra Wilderness in left hand available in 7 mm PRC and 300 WM. I have been waiting for those to become available for purchase in the states and even though it’s Q2 they are STILL NOT available for purchase before the fall season. 😔
When you support the hand guard with your off hand on bipods, you minutely lighten the front end and allow it to move. Let the bipod to its thing and don’t be afraid to lean into it.
I just looked at one of these last week. I don’t know that it’s for me but an interesting design. I am curious, could a person set it up with the bolt on your dominant side but have it eject on the other side so you could catch brass with your support hand? That would be sweet for handloaders.
A suppressor. LOL. If you're determined to go with a muzzle brake, a company called APA (American Precision Arms) makes the most effective brakes available.
As a lefty who has never been willing to buy a left handed rifle this is really appealing.
It's a great concept, and seems to be a really solid rifle...
I am a lefty and thats why I bought a beretta cx4 storm as you can change things on it and now I am looking at getting the brx1 for the same reason
Commenting to help the algorithm... ;)
Meeeee tooooo

Nice... That's fantastic ammo!
Norma made ammo for Weatherby for years before they started making their own and Norma brass is one of the best for the price 🙌
@@edwardabrams4972 If I’m not mistaken I think they also used to make Nosler brass for a while.

@@edwardabrams4972 That’s awesome.
Great review. Groupings are killer. Here in the UK the BRX1’s are usually all black, but liking the green/black for the US market.
As a hopeless lefty, this is great!!! Having a bunch of right handed grandkids, it would be perfect
While I am right handed, my oldest son, William, shoots left handed, so I thought it was cool too!

Very impressive groups! Thanks JVB! Love your podcast and now your videos too!
Much appreciated!

Interesting concept. Love the range videos.
Thanks!
Thanks for this! Looking at this in 6.5 creedmoor.
Wish we could run suppressors in Canada . Nice rifle and love the short videos 👍
Wtf you dont have suppressors??
@@tombauer622 no sir we don’t

Thanks!
Great video! Love your content.
Thanks!

Yes, absolutely!
Can you think of anything about switching to LH that could possibly effect the accuracy or change the POI?
It shouldn’t affect it…
What is the best muzzle brake you recommend me for Brx1 in 300 win mag?
A suppressor. LOL. If you're determined to go with a muzzle brake, a company called APA (American Precision Arms) makes the most effective brakes available.
its neat as a southpaw but id rather stick to a savage 99 or BLR
Those are great rifles!
I love you William joseph Barsh von benedict. and your daddy
Okay Isaac you need to chill buddy
