[QUOTE="Tumbleweed, post: 924779, member: 9281"] If you're looking at something to push a 230 fast, take a good look at the 300 RUM. It's a much more efficient cartridge and apples to apples it will just about equal the speed of the 30-378 with a lot less powder. Better brass is available for the 300 and it's a lot cheaper too. To make the 30-378 burn all of that powder efficiently you would probably need a 36-40" barrel. If you build a 300 RUM you can make it easily outperform a factory 30-378 in speed. So in your original comparison, I would choose the 338 over the 30-378. [/QUOTE]
