[QUOTE="woods, post: 381349, member: 6042"] I am working the kinks out of rechambering a 300 win mag into a 30/375 Ruger. The reamer can be rented from 4D [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v663/bwestfall/RELOADING/30_375_Ruger.jpg[/IMG] The case capacity is 93.6 grs as compared to the 300 win mag at around 87 grs. Should still be able to shoot without a muzzle brake. Now the 338/375 Ruger should also be interesting and be somewhere between the 338 win mag and the 338RUM but would be a recoil bad boy from the bench and personally I would need a brake. To resize the case I got a 338RCM Full Length Die and a 300RCM neck sizer and I can get the brass neck down to 30 caliber 30/375 Ruger..................375 Ruger [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v663/bwestfall/RELOADING/DSCN1855.jpg[/IMG] It makes a good looking case 300 win mag...................30/375 Ruger.........................375 Ruger [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v663/bwestfall/RELOADING/DSCN1856.jpg[/IMG] Now in my case with a rechamber of an existing 30 caliber, I will only have to set the barrel back a couple of threads. But in your case with a total rebarrel you will only need to order a 30 caliber barrel from whichever barrel maker you want and have the chamber reamed to what you want. James, what kind of performance are you getting with your 30 caliber? [/QUOTE]
