New 300 RUM for the Bulls

This one weighed 7.5# bare. I'm gonna weigh it with everything and get back.
Mine went from 10 lbs with scope to 13.5 lbs. It's a shooter but no longer my go to mountain rifle anymore. I'll use my Weatherby Vanguard 300 win mag or CA Ridgeline 6.5 PRC. Both are very light. I single load my 300 RUM now 🙄 Taking it and the Weatherby to Az. for late rifle bull hunt this year. 215 Berger in 300 RUM. Probably 180 Hammer I'm 300 Win Mag.

Very nice, I am new to the 300 Rum world, have to post some pics once I get it back from the gunsmith, but with that said I have two hunting buddies that have been shooting them for years, and one of them spent a lot of time testing different loads, and for his gun, this is the best load that works for him, and its the one Im starting with for my testing.
Brass = Nosler or Norma 300 ultra mag
Powder: Hodgdon Retumbo 1lbs bottle
Back up powder Reloader 25
210 burger bullets VLD Hunting Bullet
215 large magnum rifle primers federal (only Federal)

but this should help

Nice rifle. Is that a tripod adapter above ur btoom metal, what brand? my 300 wwm loves the factory 215 bergers but my Mark V bolt clearanace makes it a single feed aand I cannot eject unfired cartridges without removing the bolt.
It comes with the Manners LRH. If he can't tell what brand it is, I'll look when mine shows up. That's still 5+ months out though. Atlas is the manufacturer for their bipod adapter, so it's probably them.
 
Like 125 Ballistic Tips????? Really. Everyone is wondering if you were serious is all.
I have never shot this gun, but I have friends that have the same one and I am starting at what they have found that works for them, MIND YOU I'm NEW I have never reloaded anything in my life, I am just getting the supplies together. the diagram that I posted was more of how much powder to use 98 will be my starting point,
