[QUOTE="Deleted member 25294, post: 1635548"] What's the purpose of this rifle? If it's for target shooting the RUM is extremely overbore. If it's for hunting I would have a HUGE problem with single feeding.. If you care about high quality brass then definitely go 300 NM or 30-338 Lapua The 300 NM doesn't give up much to the 300 RUM, I have one that I'm developing loads for, and 3000 fps with a 230 is easy from a 26" barrel with a lot less powder than a RUM. And my COAL with a 230 at the neck boat tail junction is 3.6". If you really want to hot rod the 250 A Tip I'd look into the 300 NM improved for sure, with Lapua brass you'll fire form 100 and be good forever. [/QUOTE]
