[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 133225, member: 2736"] Cruizin I shoot a 30x378 in a 27" #7 taper barrel and recoil is very manageable and it shoots very good .093 moa 5 shot group.It has the standard weatherby freebore so I can shoot factory loads. brass is about $1.50 each but its made by norma ( very good). The 300 ultra mag is another good choice for what you want and works in the action you have and has 27% more energy than the 300 win mag at 200yrds. The 7mm ultra mag has about 12% greater energy than the 7 STW. With all this power there is a price to be paid ( recoil ) but if you build on a heavy barrel #6 or #7 taper 26" to 28" and use a laminated stock recoil will not be an issue. Note; the laminated stock will help balance a muzzle heavy rifle. The nice thing about the Ultra Mag brass is about .46 cents a peace and factory ammo is less than 1/2 the price of the weatherby ammo. something to think about J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
