[QUOTE="Mark_in_utah, post: 7694, member: 1503"] Samson, So far I've only found Remington brass for the .338 RUM. It's nice looking brass, and so far so good. I'm on my fourth loading and all is well. May need to aneal the necks the next time around. As far as accuracy, I've got .6 MOA on my factory LSS using 250 grain Gamekings and IMR4831. I've heard of many Sendero's getting sub 0.5 MOA right out of the box using factory ammo no less. If you want some interesting reading on the RUM, check the Nosler web-site and read what they're doing with all of their .338 test barrels - they're rechambering all of them to RUM because of its "surprising accuracy". I think the .300 RUM is a bit over-bore, but I definately feel that the .338 RUM is not. While there are some hard-core 30 caliber guys here, I believe that when it comes to stopping power or wind bucking, the .338 has a bit more going for it. Mark in Utah [/QUOTE]
