[QUOTE="Deleted member 103481, post: 2028728"] Luck of the draw for barrel being fast, hoping your barrel likes reloder 26 or n570, and hoping your rifle wants to run on the top end all make this kind of like throwing darts. If those all land pretty well I’d say a 30 nosler can do it, a 30-28 would probably get you more head room. A 300 run should, 300 norma imp should fwiw with rl26 my 21” 300 prc went over 3k fps with a 215 without ejector marks. I won’t tell you the charge but you can call Berger, it was a stiff one. With my supressor on (10inch custom) it doesn’t want to run that high, so I’ve backed it down a couple grains and it’s cruising just over 2850. So I would be looking at more capacity than I have for a legit 215/3000 rifle at that length. [/QUOTE]
