[QUOTE="AZShooter, post: 1471083, member: 5219"] I recently reduced the velocity and subsequent recoil of my 8 1/2 lb 300 RUM. This package has a 24" barrel so you should obtain higher velocities with a longer barrel. Regardless this should give you a good comparison. I use the 230 Berger match target hybrid . Switched from 99 gr of RL-33 with velocity of 2975 fps to 86 gr of H-1000 with velocity of 2800 fps. This should have its performance very similar to a max loaded 300 win mag. FYI the 6 x 6 elk I shot last year was shot at 156 yd took one step and died. I am happy with the performance of this bullet regardless of the muzzle velocity. The H-1000 load is probably more temperature stable and it makes for a more pleasant recoiling rifle. [/QUOTE]
