[QUOTE="bkondeff, post: 1015405, member: 10444"] I believe a 300 Weatherby case is a world of difference from a 300 Win. I would think a 7-300Weatherby is closer to a Ultra Mag, capacity wise, than it is to an STW case. If a 300 Weatherby can push a 180 grain partition 3250, I would imagine it would push a .284, 180 grain berger pretty fast as well, but are you using 90gr of powder to do so? I would prefer a 180gr Berger going 3000-3050 using only 70-74gr of powder, assuming better barrel life and much more reasonable recoil. I calculate as much as 20% recoil in ft/lbs. Shooting my buddies big Weatherby was never fun! [/QUOTE]
