[QUOTE="luke, post: 467511, member: 15102"] I bought a remington sps in 300RUM a few years ago and the thing is a definate shooter. It shoots 1/2 to 3/4 inch groups @ 200 yards all day long. I shoot 210 bergers at 3100 fps. But as stated before this is not always the case. My uncle shot mine and 2 days later brought one that he just bought over for me to work a load for. The best that his identicle rifle would do was about 1 1/2 inches at 100 yards with a 165gr bullet. And that load only chronoed at 3000 fps. That is not very good for that amount of powder burned. I have also had a 300wsm in a savage model 12. I could regularly shoot 1/2inch 5 shot groups at 200 yards and sometimes 1/4 inch. Should have never got rid of it. Imo if I were gonna shoot at an elk at 6-700 yards I would rather have the wsm for the simple reason that it does not kick as bad. More than enough gun for the job. [/QUOTE]
