[QUOTE="TitaniousReaper, post: 2296554, member: 108718"] A heavier barrel will cut down on barrel whip and also a muzzle break would too but truly ether or will do the trick. My stock 26" stainless rum whips something fearce causing the gun to be act just like your talking about. Honestly the best bet would be just build the standard rum with a 28in medium bull barrel you can still pack but will be heavy enough to counter the whip. The extra 2"s will increase velocity a tad bit which will also help if it fits into the accuracy node of the rifle. I'm planning on building my rum to do it all from hunting 100yds-1500yds(with enough practice and the right conditions of course) and as for long range shooting I've took it out to 1860yds on targets and have had some good shooting but I feel like after I fully customize it.. it will shoot unbelievably accurate. Honestly if you save the money to have a complete build done on the 300rum, it will snuff milk jugs with heavy, high bc bullets out to a mile no problem. Especially if MarkandSam(on youtube) shot it out to 2725yds decently with 250gr monsters. Not ethical at that range for game of course but it has the ability to reach out there for fun ;) I hope this helps even though I feel like I just rambled off I figured it was good input. If its just nonsense to you than I'm sorry for bothering you gentlemen. Or if you want more info im always researching and have a decent amount of experience with multiple bullets from 212Eld-x's to 230smk's all running h1000. [/QUOTE]
