Its between the R1 300wm or a bolt remington XHR or tikka lite all of the same caliber. I love the ability to have multiple quick shots, but my other concern has to be of reliabilty. NW Montana has some pretty harsh fall hunting weather, with lots of wet snow, mud, tough terrain freeze/thaw, more so than upstate NY where i grew up and began to hunt. The R1 has to be able to battle all these conditions and still stay accurate and dependable, without me having to clean it 3 times a day. This is my main concern.

I have read through all the threads and have a few questions before i make a decision to purchase an R1. I live in NW Montana and want to use a R1 300wm for elk hunting. How does the r1 perform under multiple days of inclimate weather? Have you ever had any issues with your R1 that you would not have had with a bolt action? Do you think you can get your grouping of shots as tight and accurate as a bolt action? What are the advantage and disadvantage to an R1 compared to a Bolt action?
