[QUOTE="trebark, post: 996369, member: 19172"] If it is not a hardship, keep both 'just cuz' 300RUM - biggest bullet is the 230grain Berger Hybrid with a G1 BC of .743. Depending on your barrel length, you could get these bullets going 2900+ (I had a 32" barrel 300RUM that sent the 230s at 3000+). This combination will outperform the 338RUM in drop and drift out to a certain point (my guess is that point is beyond 1000yards). 338RUM - biggest bullet is the 300grain Berger Hybrid with a G1 BC of .818. As before, depending on barrel length, you could get this bullet going 2800+. The advantage it has over the 300RUM is retained energy and longrange (read: beyond 1000). [/QUOTE]
