I'm looking into purchasing a Sako TRG-s in 30-378 Weatherby mag. Does anyone have any experience with this caliber? I'm not so much questioning the Sako. I know they're good. Just wondering how accurate of a round this is and will i have a hard time finding new cases for reloading. Also does anyone know what kind of kick a round like this will produce in a hunting weight rifle?

Thanks
John

Contact Brand692. He has a 300 12 Egg Magnum. I believe it is a 378 Weatherby case necked to 30 cal with a gibbs neck. So, it has the shoulder blown forward compared to the 30-378. He was shooting 155 scenars around 4000 fps. I shot it a couple time and it kicked like a pussycat with a GAP FTE brake. You are going to be looking at 1000 rounds max on a barrel. Probably more around 500.
