[QUOTE="Hugnot, post: 2340512, member: 115658"] just goin along with my gear down & looks like I hooked onto something real big - is a 300 LRH a .338 Norma necked down to .308? This thread is about comparisons between the .300 WM & .300 WBY. Any observations of cartridge that is loaded with 95-97 grains of powder - "my 300 LRH runs at 3225-3250 fps comfortably with 225 -230 gr bullets" are irrelevant to the thread. What I read "you're comparing an improved wildcat 300 Win Mag chamber to a factory standard 300 Wby ... with same components, well [I]cowgirl[/I].... two different cartridges that will load up differently" Yes, the 3.6 COAL .300 WM will "load up differently" than the 3.34 COAL .300 WM and provide somewhat higher velocities, closing the gap for the .300 WBY. The only difference is that my 3.6 COAL chamber has a longer throat or leade to accept longer bullets without reducing powder capacity. Factory .300 WM ammo will work in my chamber without changing brass dimensions like shoulder angle or datum length when head spaced on shoulder. Possibly a new thread might be made on the virtues of the .300 LRH so we could learn more. Hopefully, this thread will be more objective and omit numerous confrontational statements. I think this has some value: [URL unfurl="true"]https://bergerbullets.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/COAL.pdf[/URL] Bring it on chief,. [/QUOTE]
