[QUOTE="Broz, post: 712309, member: 7503"] The key words here are " doesn't quite" but it looks like I am pushing the 215's a tad faster than your rum is pushing a 225. My 300 win is pushing the 215's at 3050 as verified by my Oehler 35 and I took a goat at 1285 yards so the drops agree. This is why I found with the 30-378 and the RUMs there seems to be a point of diminishing returns where you gain some velocity but pay for it with barrel life. The 300 RUM's I worked with had to have the bullets seated out farther starting about 500 rounds as accuracy started to diminish. I like all 30's but as much as I shoot the 300 win is a better fit for the long run. Jeff [/QUOTE]
