[QUOTE="Don - In Idaho, post: 92840, member: 4760"] I am leaning towards a 338/300 RUM. Same case capacity as the 338 LM Slightly greater margin of safety on the chamber wall thickness (338 LM chamber wall thickness in a Rem/Sav action is getting pretty dang thin) Less bolt face thrust than the 338 LM case No bolt mods needed (uses std. magnum bolt face) Of course, you can't buy factory ammo for it...which is the only drawback that I can see, but I don't shoot factory ammo except in my rimfires.
