.260 for sure! Start him with lighter bullets say 120 grain.

Their VLD hunting bullets work great, why do you insist on using a target bullet? I think the company's that make bullets make them for a specific purpose, why deviant from their advise on the box of bullets you load!

I have two 300 WM with 24 inch barrels and they give me good velocity and accuracy but hell trade if you feel better about it. In regards to the gentleman who said you could make up for the 2 inches with RL 26 would you mind sharing some of those loads with me? I would really appreciate it...

They are both great and I have both and others, but we all need a new gun in a new caliber once in a while! Get the 6,5 CM.

What powder do you use and how much if you don't mind sharing? Just getting started with the RUM.

Just getting started with my RUM and a 8 lb can of RL 26, any load info you could provide would be much appreciated!

How much powder on the 3050 load?

Does anybody have any good load data for a 300 RUM pushing heavy 210, 220 bullets with RL 26?

Its good stuff, keep trying!

Make sure it is threaded for a muzzle brake because your going to need one! Either caliber will work but I am partial to big bullets so I prefer the 300 Win Mag. For the bullet I would recommend the 220 gr. Hornady ELD-X. The X means its a hunting bullet. I has an incredible ballistic profile...

Check the Muzzle Energy of the caliber and bullet combination to see how much energy (ME) it produces at your maximum confident shooting range. You can determine this with ballistic tables from various apps for your smart phone. Like much of this there are various theories on what kind of...

I think the Berger's are great for long range shooting but destroy far to much meat on impact! They basically explode and have minimal penetration. I have the 7 rem mags bigger brother and use it for long range deer and antelope. For Elk and Moose go with the 300 Win Mag good 190's and above are...

For the .308 with 168 gr Sierra Match Kings, which is my main load for that rifle I really like RL-15 with 42 grains. Varget is good too but my favorite is the above!

Christensen Arms has a beauty!
