[QUOTE="Long Time Long Ranger, post: 528515, member: 505"] Your 300 RUM action will not hold the 338-378. You need your mk 5 action or a really good custom action. If your looking for a small caliber on your mk 5 action the 270 wby is excellent. I have shot one for over 35 years and own two now along with two 257 wby's and one 7mm wby. The Sin is the same length as these and would do well on your action. In a 6.5 or 7mm that would be a good one for extreme ballistics. Otherwise you have about as good as you can get with your 270 wby. I have several 7mm STW's and 7mm-300 wby's and they are fun to shoot at long range. You would need to order the 300 wby mag follower from wby and lengthen the slot on the bottom of your bolt to eject the longer cartridge. [/QUOTE]
