[QUOTE="Hired Gun, post: 124514, member: 1290"] [ QUOTE ] I just don't think you are getting enough of a gain shooting 20gn more powder in the 300 RUM over the 300wm. I just think that a RUM case that is shortened to hold the same amount of powder as the 300wm would be more efficient. It would be like the 300wsm but improved. [/ QUOTE ] The gain in speed in any sport at the upper ends is never linear. Doesn't seem right a 200 horse boat will run 65 mph and the same hull need over 600 horses to go 100 mph. (not exact figures) What is 20 grains? 25 less loads out of a can of powder. I can afford that. I have found the most efficient means of picking up performance is to just put a longer barrel on it. A 300Wby sounds like exactly what you are looking for. Mine will do 200 grain Accubonds at 3100 comfortably with only 83 grains of IMR-7828SSC in a 26" barrel. [/QUOTE]
