[QUOTE="jwp475, post: 267794, member: 3776"] I would never recommend a 300 RUM as a first long range rifle. Learning to shoot accurately at long range requires practice and rounds down range. A great first rifle caliber is a 308 win. It will gives very long barrel life and there are a myriad of match grade factory ammo available. The HIGH powder capacity of the RUM means that fewer shots can be fired down range is succession without over heating the barrel. IMHO the RUMS are for the more experienced shooters. The 308 will force the shooter to learn to read wind better than will the "powder guzzlers" [/QUOTE]
