[QUOTE="dreamhunt, post: 1756749, member: 109852"] Long Range Hunting, it is the best of the .30's. As a target round, not so much. Throat wear in the barrel can be seen in less than 300 shots. It truly is a cannon, and I've wanted one for a long time, but ended up getting a .300 Rem Ultra Mag which isn't THAT far behind the big Weatherby. If you are a reloader, the .378 Roy case is expensive to feed, if you shoot factory ammo, it is REALLY expensive to feed. New brass for the 30-378 is $60 per 20 cases. Factory loaded ammo can go over $100 per box. Not to mention it's hardy appetite for powder. The .300 Win Mag, will in most cases serve every need you will encounter. I just went with the Ultra for something new to toy with. [/QUOTE]
