I might be interested if it was a 300 Gin. Really though, thats more gun than I need but im sure the people that need it will love it.

I don't think I would ever go that route, certainly not for quite some time. Right now, my 284 Win will handle things farther out than I can shoot reliably, so I don't see much point besides finding out what is possible if you have the money, equipment, and know-how. This might not be a road that I am likely to go down, but I am still mighty curious just what the performance level on something like that is. I'm definitely looking forward to seeing some results.

Having fiddled & hunted with the 7.82 Warbird and 30-378 Wby for well over 10 years and the 300 RUM since it's inception and of course the 300 LRH... I have a lasting infatuation with fast 30 cal cartridges

this is more a personal project and I'm well into it now, too late to turn back ... I'm having RCC make me the brass and figured may as well have it available to all who may be interested

not overly concerned (zero) if not a single soul ever builds one, not doing it for any sort of financial gain , then again ... none of my projects were ever intended to be, just having a helluva time messing with stuff most will never have the pleasure of experiencing

the name "Vodka" was a joke at the start but everybody I mentioned it to.. were absolutely thrilled at the idea and it stuck

Which bullets and estimated MVs?

 

[P7M13]

A potato gun for sure.
Write-up on the build and range report, please.
Why?
"Fer killin' rats in my swamp."

 

[Quintus]

That is exactly what I need! What are you planning load wise to shoot with it?

 

[ButterBean]

Well I'm interested

Water grains capacity?

You could probably ask whats the point with about half the cartriges out there.
Whats the point of doing the same thing as everyone else is an just as valid question.
I think you will have great fun with it

Dubble post

You could kill a deer without a phone, ballistic app, rangefinder and kestrel.

Impossible!

What powder is she going to burn with the heavies?

Since the 300 RUM exists already ....

I'm doing a 300 VODKA

500 Nitro Express cut down to 300 RUM length and necked to 30 cal, slightly rebated rim in mag boltface (375 H&H family, 300 RUM etc.) gobs more case capacity over the RUM and 100% safe to run in Rem 700 actions, super tuff factory made, headstamped brass and reamer coming

will smoke the 30-338 Lapua Imp, 30-378 Wby and 7.82 Warbird without requiring a $$$$ custom Lapua Mag sized action, got two 32" 8 twist 30 cal Rock Creek barrels in da house, all systems go !

will be available to whoever wants a stiff shot of Vodka.....

300 Vodka reamer will completely clean out a 300 Rum chamber without needing to set barrel back

you can take shots while you wait for a new barrel , ha

my personal 1 mile moose gun, lol

reamers will be available at PT&G in Oregon and factory brass will be made by RCC in Texas

dis ain't ya mamma's creedho
