[QUOTE="woods, post: 357649, member: 6042"] I looked at the 300 Dakota. It has 97 gr capacity which would be another step up. The bolt face might need some work from .532" to .545" and the neck/shoulder junction is .110" shorter than the 300 win mag and the 30/375 Ruger is only .0163" shorter so the setback would be less. More dies though. Does anyone know what the shoulder angle is on the 300RCM? Steve's pages doesn't show it and the 4D reamer site doesn't either, but I think it is 36* which is different than the 375 Ruger. If so then you are probably right on sizing the case body and pushing the shoulder back with the 375 Ruger die, which I have. Will there be any problem necking down from 375 to 30 caliber with the 300RCM neck die? Any crinkling or folding on the neck? I do anneal, neck turn and have a 30 caliber reamer. The chamber reamer can be rented from 4D [url]http://4-dproducts.com/display.php?group=Rifle+Calibers[/url] [/QUOTE]
