[QUOTE="James Jones, post: 145721, member: 8843"] If the 30 is your choile for bore diameter then I would definatly use the 338 Lapua case and improve it. The capacity will be a little less than the big Weatherby but you'll likely get the same or better velocities due to the better brass being able to handel the pressure. Yea the brass is a little more expensive but if you look at it in the long run you'll get more firings from the Lapua cases and they'll pay for themselves in the end. Or at least these are my theories I have never owned either. I do know that the BC of the 180gr Berger is higher and you can drive it faster that makes for way better wind bucking ability and less drop if your shooting unknown ranges. In the Br you know your range so the drop isin't that big of a deal but the wind has to be read correctly all the way out , thats where the higher speed and higer BC will win "If the whole BR crowd goes and jumps off of a bridge are you gonna do it to" "just becausethey do it all the time doesen't make it the best idea" My mom used to tell me that all the time when I was growing up and it used to drive me nuts , I just saw an opportunity to use those lines so I figured I'd throw them out their [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [/QUOTE]
