[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 951162, member: 48043"] Owning and shooting both the 300win and rum I'd say to go with the rum and back it off a bit if you don't need the extra speed; you may want that extra speed later. I like my 300win a lot, but my rum will throw 10% more bullet to the same speed at the very least. When you get to really heavy pills it'll do even more because it'll digest the 50bmg class powders (and rl33/retumbo) that the 300win can't do well with because of case capacity. The rum is a bit more finicky, but any high performance round will be harder to find perfection with than the slower rounds in a caliber. I've gotten 3300 fps with 180's in the rum no sweat, and 3150 fps is a tough sell for most 300wins. The heaviest bullet I can break 3000 fps with in my 300win is a 190, but I can hit 3000 fps with a 225 using rl33 in my rum no sweat. [/QUOTE]
