[QUOTE="remingtonman_25_06, post: 89827, member: 1403"] I have a Rem 700 LSS in a 300 RUM. I do not have a brake on it, but my next one will. Thats not a bad thing, just want to spot my own shots from now on. My rifle loaded, with bi-pod weight around 9lbs. It has the trigger worked on, been bedded and floated. It shoots great out to 800 yards, and on good days out to 1000. I have shot the 220g SMK at 3000fps. This will give you somewhere around 1350lbs, 1650fps at 1000 yards. Clearly over your demand in a factory chambering. With the 210g VLD at 3050fps, it will give you 1400lbs, 1750fps. I loaded mine way out for single shot use, so I cannot comment on them fitting in the magazine. Well not way out, something like 3.8", but the magazine length is usually 3.660". They might still be accurate at 3.660" never know. How about putting a 28" with a brake, then you will have a little better ballistics, and be able to spot your own shots, and keep your rifle under 10lbs. [/QUOTE]
