Re: 300 RUM
If you're looking for a big .30 cal to launch the heavies I'd say it's as good or better than any other commercially available .30 cal out there.
The new Berger 230's, balistically speaking, should be excellent with the case capacity of the 300RUM.

Re: 300 RUM
Ever since the round came out it has been used at the DL sports
Academy 1 mile club with excellent results and when they started they used 180 grain Swift hunting bullets, I don't know what they use now.

Re: 300 RUM
Depends on what you are trying to accomplish.
Brass quality is not that great,even if you can get some from Nosler,wich is far better than Remington.
In terms of cost,its cheaper to run than other large 30 cal big boomers like the 300 Norma,300 Lapua,300 Dakota etc.
But it will get you past 1k with ease with the heavy bullets.

Very hard on barrels. Take a look the new 300 Accuracy International. It is basically the 375 Ruger necked down to 30 cal. It will push a 240gr at about 2950fps with alot less powder and easier on barrels.

Re: 300 RUM
Great info fellows. What about accuracy at a thousand plus? What's a good bullet weight?
