[QUOTE="Andrew Massi, post: 1459731, member: 106096"] Another way to look at it is with cartridges of the same parent The 30/28 nosler has about twice the life span as the 26 nosler. Or 6.5-300, 7mm-300 and 300 weatherby As overbore decreases barrel life increases. And to the original poster Yes, someone went through the hassle of the 6.5-378 weatherby. Pac nor and ptg have reamers for it. As others have said, total waste of powder through diminishing return. The ideal WEATHERBY case for 6.5 projectiles is the 257 or 270 wby, good barrel life( twice that of the 6.5-300, probably 8x 6.5-378) 140s at 3300fps. [/QUOTE]
