[QUOTE="youngbuck, post: 567121, member: 22987"] What do you want out of the new chambering? Flat shooting? More energy? 338s are great for more energy over .30 cal, but they aren't "flat shooting". A 300RUM over a 300WM isn't a [I]huge[/I] change in much of anything; drop, energy, extended distance while over minimal expansion velocity. IMO, you can improve those things easier with bullet choice instead of more powder. A 300RUM will be a little "flatter shooting" over your 300WM, but I'd say 95% of the critters you will use it on will not be able to tell a difference.If you go 338, chamberings will be limited to your action.
