[QUOTE="Tumbleweed, post: 945580, member: 9281"] If you can get more speed out of your 30" RUM (which I suspect you could) without sacrificing accuracy, you will be giving up very little to a standard Edge running 300 grain bullets at 2850fps. I have a full custom 300RUM with non standard throating and a 32" barrel that allows 3250fps with RL33 using 230 Hybrids. This is a mild load as well. On paper I'm outperforming 300 grain bullets in all catergories when velocity is 2850fps. Impact velocity at long range is much better than the slow 300 too. Someone suggested going with a faster .338 if you were going to change, I agree. [/QUOTE]
