[QUOTE="Deleted member 46119, post: 1231796"] There is nothing "wrong" with an 11twist. You might not be able to use 200+grain bullets, however, that is a "might". You won't know until you try. IMO 190s vs 200s is not much of a loss but what do I know. LOL. I looks like a fine build. On to 300 WM vs 30-Nosler. I don't shoot a 300 WM in the belted 300 class, I shoot 300 Wby. We all are familiar with the 300 WM so I can only say that it is a fine way to go. The 30-Nosler is the new boy in town. I built a variant, a 308/26-Nosler before Nosler announced the 30. There is a difference between the two. 308/26-Nosler is a 26 necked up vs. the 30-Nosler which has the shoulder moved back .050 but keeps the same case length for a longer neck. A couple grains of capacity. vs. the 300WM, they both fit in the same action. One has a belt one doesn't. The 30 or 308/26 will have more powder capacity and that capacity does equate to faster at the same pressures. The decision comes down to what you want based on your preferences. I prefer to avoid belted designs except for Wby chamberings. I collect Weatherby's for use as builds. What I prefer may not be anything like what you prefer. [/QUOTE]
