1-8 30 cal

[codym]

I have a 1-8 twist 30 cal blank, finish at 26' inches. want to build a BH SR3 prefit to shoot 215 bergers and probably 230 Atips. Was thinking a .220 freebore 30 nosler. what would you build? This will be used mostly as an ELR gun with an the ocassional LR hunt thrown in. What would you build?

.300 RUM and propel the 215/230 Bergers.

300 norma with 28 inch tube.

if you reload I'd take a look at the 30 Sherman Magnum. If not, then maybe a 300prc

3050 FPS with a 230 in a 26 inch barrel and it fits well into a mag with any bullets. You could run the 250 atips to with that 1 in 8
