[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 915520, member: 11717"] The 30-375 Ruger and 300 Dakota are almost identical cases. Basically the same volume but the Dakota is slight shorter and fatter. 300 Dakota brass is made by Hornady and IMO, very good quality. 375 Ruger brass also made by Hornady is about half the cost of Dakota brass but I can not comment on its quality, I assume it's good. So the question is, do you go with the 300 Dakota and it's more spendy brass (about $2.00 per case) or do you go with the 30-375 with cheaper brass (about $1.00 per case) and go through the process of necking it down which will include the cost of a sizng die (338 RCM). Is the cost of the sizing die and the work necking down the brass worth ~ $1.00 per case? It (or the 300 Dakota) would be a great 30 cal cartridge sitting right between the 300 WM and 300 RUM.
