[QUOTE="500mag_guy, post: 821288, member: 34924"] I've had amazing success with the 300 rum with LRH. I was using the 190 gr Berger for many years with outstanding performance. This year I bumped it up to Berger 230 gr pills and it is looking very promising at 1000 yards Definitely a +1 on the 300 rum I also shoot a 338 lapua mag. Last year i shot a mulie doe at 1120 yards. I touched off the first round and it was high. Realized I had forgot to account for my 17* slope. Dialed down my 3/4 moa and waited for my next shot. (She only ran 20 yards and continued to feed.) When I touched off she decided to make another step and I ended up hitting her in the gut region. She dropped like a ton of bricks. Upon arrival to the doe entry was the size of a quarter and exit was approx. 3" round. Everything inside looked like it had been through a blender and dropped back inside the chest cavity. Also a very impressive round. I wouldn't even attempt an elk with my 308 a 1k. But both the 7mm and the 300wm with the right bullet are very capable. [/QUOTE]
