[QUOTE="elkaholic, post: 1675243, member: 13833"] We've discussed the other Max chamberings a bit but haven't said much about the 300. Most of you know that the 300 wsm has set some records from the 1000 yard bench. Well, there are some in the group that think the 300 max could be a better cartridge, especially given better brass. It has a longer neck than the Whizzem (.314" vs . 298"), less body taper and sharper shoulder and is .085" shorter. It will no doubt equal or beat the wsm velocity as well. We figure 3000' with a 215 in a 26" barrel. Here is a pic with the 215 Berger seated to the lands at 3.090". This would be excellent chambered in a Defiance XM, tikka, and works very well in a long action too. You could even run it in a 700 SA with a 3.11" Bainey box. What it is is a 300 SS on steroids![ATTACH=full]141777[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
