[QUOTE="Troutslayer2, post: 1947802, member: 25190"] I talked myself out of it like this- 300RUM - H1000- 200gr. Projectile - 3070FPS using 93 grains powder 300PRC - H1000- 200gr. Projectile - 2975FPS using 80.7 grains powder Pretty apples to apples comparison the only difference is the data is from separate sources but you get the idea. 13 grains more powder to achieve less than 100FPS improvement in velocity. I guess you could do this all day long with every cartridge under the sun, like 300RUM to 300 Norma or whatever.... I had to draw the line somewhere. The only 300RUM based cartridge I will ever own again is an Edge. I just don’t see the point in burning all that powder for the marginal increase in performance in .30 cal but I am not necessarily shooting heavy for caliber bullets.. Go ahead an savage me for saying this, I can take it. [/QUOTE]
