[QUOTE="woods, post: 565545, member: 6042"] If you have a case capacity somewhere between the 300 win mag (~87 grs) and the 30/375 Ruger (~93 grs) you are still way way behind both the 30-378 Wtby and the 300 RUM (both ~110 grs IIRC) and neither the Wtby or the RUM reach 3000 fps with a 220 gr bullet in the book. I realize book velocities can be exceeded and that a 28" barrel will add some. I would be surprised if any load for a caliber in the 300 win mag to 30/375 Ruger range would push a 225 gr bullet much past 2800 fps. Now I'm all over a 200 gr bullet hitting the 3000 fps within that powder capacity. [/QUOTE]
