[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 1629315, member: 11717"] I might get some flack for this but oh well, here goes. I don't use loading manuals. If you check out a few different manuals for same cartridge bullet and powder you will get different starting and max loads, fact. I once found the starting load in one online manual to have a higher charge than the max load for the same cartridge, bullet and powder in another manual. Most folks buy a RUM because they want higher velocities and longer effective ranges. I was getting 2950 with a 210 Berger, RL17, 24" barrel, 300 WSM. My 300 RUM pushed a 230 gr Berger 3100 out of a 27" barrel using RL33. You're getting WM/WSM velocities and using a lot more powder. You're choice. [ATTACH=full]132968[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
