[QUOTE="Calvin45, post: 2900945, member: 109862"] Oh yeah I’m familiar with the freebore and twist rate side of the equation. And very aware of the pricy wby brass - I do have properly stamped .257 wby brass but also loads with brass formed from both .264 Winnie and 7mm rem mag - no issues with that at all except the neck is short by a bit. L But that has little to do with case capacity. I just meant, if you were starting with a barrel blank and could specify twist and freebore and barrel length to your spec, is there really much room to go faster than the .257 weatherby or 25-7mm rem/.25-264 win/25-300WSM - anything in that capacity range - or does the law of diminishing returns dictate it’s a fools errand? Legit curious about this, chatted a while ago with someone with a .257 RUM, have given serious thought to a .25-300 weatherby. [/QUOTE]
