[QUOTE="IdahoCTD, post: 589926, member: 13110"] The powder consumption goes up drastically over WSM's or most belted mag cases therefore considerably more recoil. For example a .300 Win. uses in the 70-75grs of powder range for heavier bullets and a .300 RUM uses from the upper 80grs to mid 90grs. It's also why they burn up barrels faster. That's why I shoot a .30-8mm Mag instead of a .300 RUM. It's about midway between a .300wm and a .300 RUM for velocity. I shoot 210gr bullets at 3100fps out of a 27 1/2" barrel using 76grs of powder.
