[QUOTE="Gixxerbob, post: 2387148, member: 112004"] I know the RUM has a little more gas in the tank to push the heavies, therefore, slightly superior to the Jarrett, generally speaking. Honestly, it's probably not significant enough to make a difference to me overall with 190-210 grain pills. I have a factory remington 700 sps in 300RUM that I mounted in a sendero stock. I also have 300 pcs of formed 300 Jarrett brass. I love my 338 Jarrett and 7mm stw so I pick up 8mmRM brass whenever I see it and if I choose to keep the rifle as a RUM the 300 pcs wont go to waste. I have not shot the RUM yet (no dies, no brass and it needs a real scope). Correct me if I'm wrong... but it's going to take 200pcs of nosler brass to last as long as a factory remington barrel in 300 rum? The Jarrett brass is made by remington and I won't get many reloads out of it but it's still enough to outlast a new barrel. whats your thoughts? keep it 300 rum, add a brake for $300 And buy $600-700 worth of brass..... or re-barrel to 300 Jarrett with truing and a brake at $1500 ish? give or take? which will probably result in a more accurate rifle.
