[QUOTE="RevJim, post: 1391712, member: 86754"] I have had/used both the 300 and 338 RUMs. I had a rifle built for my returning Marine SIL from Iraq, 2006. It was a stainless Mod 700 (originally a factory 300 RUM but barrel was bad) had a Shilen SS Match Select put on and chambered to 300 RUM. I worked up a good load witht he 200 NAB and Retumbo. Later, he put a Husquema (sp?) scope on it. he has shot it out to a 1000 at rocks, but he killed a big cow elk over 440yds like nobodies business! If you want a bonafide elk rifle, go with the 300 RUM and a 200gr or heavier bullet! I love the 333 RUM too but brass is pretty hard to find (or was) a few years back. But for elk/deer, the 300 is your huckleberry! [/QUOTE]
