[QUOTE="Slick8, post: 1934173, member: 52585"] I've been thinking about this for a while and want to build next spring assuming I still have a job. I'm leaning towards short and light in the range of 18-20 inches in a 338 wsm or Sherman max to run the 250 berger. I think the RCM would be a great choice but I dont know anything about premium brass or die availability for the rcm. I always plan a build around those two items first then powder compatibility. This is also key as many of our favorite powders can become hard to find. I have a 30 nosler and love it but IMO, a 300wm or above is at a point of diminishing return with 22 inches or less. I start looking for efficiency when the barrel goes less than 24 inches. [/QUOTE]
