[QUOTE="Frank in the Laurel Mts, post: 76470, member: 87"] My son uses one in the Model 7 stainless steel...the 300 SAUM is getting the short end of the stick, Big Green no longer offers it in their own 700 and offers the WSM's, go figure...the 300 takes a back seat to no other cartridge in it's class, it is efficient and very accurate. After proper barrel break-in ans a little little trigger work, his will shoot 3/4 inch groups all day long. The starting load, the first twenty-five shots was with 150 grain "DANZACed" Sierra's over H-4350 with the Remington 9 1/2 primer..very accurate load..for hunting we kept everything the same and just switched bullets..to the 150 Barnes XLC...some big deer were shot over the last few years with awesome results and none ever moved after being hit with that X-bullet. Accuracy even with the X bullet is around an inch and half, more than good enough for any big game animal on the planet...don't sell the 300 SAUM short, "BUY" lots of brass and store it, because I don't think it's going to survive much longer..another one of BIG GREEN's greatest mistakes..it is a great cartridge !!
