[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 32376, member: 12"] JD I shoot the 300 WSM in HG and I can take a 210 JLK to around 2875 with good accuracy in a 30" Spencer barrel. I am building a new 300 WSM with 30" Broughton barrel with the "5C rifling". It is the radiased lands like the Obermyer and Rock barrels. Broughton barrels are really kicking but lately and people are getting higher MV due to the rifling. This gun will be throated to shoot the 187 BIB flatbase bullets. Jim Hardy in NC is getting 3125 MV with 30 Broughton barrel in 300 WSM and Norma brass now and great accuracy. This setup requires special long throat reamer as the bullet has pressure ring that must be in the neck. Based strictly on the BC, the edge is to the 7MM WSM as I said before and I would look at the Broughton barrel with 1-9 twist if you want max MV and accuracy. BH [/QUOTE]
