[QUOTE="TopPin, post: 2035303, member: 109070"] Great rifle, love the 300RUM have 2 of them. Both are very accurate rifles and easy to load for, or im just lucky. My personal experience is they group better at max loads. Started the first one 4 grains under max with rutumbo and h1000. Never shot worth a darn until max, then both settled right in. Took a min with 200 gr Berger to get the seating depth correct. Harvested alot of elk, deer, and antelope with it. Personally i switched away from Bergers didnt care much for the results (everything died) but didnt like the gernade effect. Switched over to 200 grain Eld x shot great, blows up on everything inside of 400-450 (wasnt excited) once again everything died. Made the switch once again to Nosler Accubonds, and in my opinion are a better bullet out of the Ultra Mag. Just my thoughts. So your aware the bullet testing was on over 30 plus elk, 10 deer, 7 antelope, anywhere from 60 to 625 yards. The elk were not all harvested by myself but the rifles got there work in. In sort it is an amazing good cartridge in my opinion. Down side is alot of powder. But they hit like thors hammer. Put a muzzle break on it and a kid can shoot it just fine. [/QUOTE]
