[QUOTE="liltank, post: 503056, member: 13275"] Not to knock your friends, but you will get much farther than 200 more yards w/ a 300RUM over your 300WSM. Just a quick comparison, the RUM will push a 208grn A-max to 3200, where the 300WSM will only get to 2850. If you want to go to 1200 and want a RUM that would be the way to go. But I would suggest going with a 210grn bullet or heavier. You can also load the RUM up w/ 240grn SMK and push it to 2950. That will get you there w/ authority and then some. However I know there are going to be guys pushing you in the direction of the 338 Edge, Rum, and Lapua. Nothing wrong with any of them. If you want a reason to go big, this would be the time to do it. Both calibers with big bullets will get you there. Tank [/QUOTE]
