[QUOTE="Buttermilk, post: 1832754, member: 5262"] I have a 300 RUM. Factory barrel was 26" long and was typically MOA, but not always. Factory barrel would do 3300 fps with the Nosler 190 ABLR. Berger 230's were just under 3000 fps. Factory throat was about 1/2" long. Gun got reworked with a 27" Krieger 5R barrel. Setup to use a a Wyatt's extended box on a Rem 700. Freebore is 0.098" with a 0.343" neck chamber diameter. Berger 210 VLDH's at 3149 fps at 1/2 MOA or better is typical, with some groups going under 0.4 MOA. It will also shoot the Hornady 212 ELDX at 3174 fps accurately too. Not sure why the 300 RUM isn't more popular. Load work up was quick as it didn't take a lot of work to develop two loads. [/QUOTE]
