[QUOTE="DMP25-06, post: 2117266, member: 27271"] Paladin300 , No disrespect to you sir , but comparing a .338 RUM to a .30-.378 Weatherby is like comparing apples to oranges , not the same . Compare your 338 RUM with that bullet to a .338-378 Weatherby , using the same length barrel with the same twist as your barrel , shooting the same 285 gr. Flatline bullets , set-up with the same amount of free-bore , and seated at the same distance from the lands , running the same chamber pressure as your 338 RUM , and the .338-378 Weatherby will outperform your 338 RUM . Your 338 RUM may be more efficient , but the larger volume of powder will propel the bullet faster . I do like the looks of your cartridge . DMP25-06 [/QUOTE]
