[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 2279529, member: 10755"] Interesting, don’t ever consider SAAMI when choosing a cartridge and rifle to go with it. If I buy a factory rifle, it is 99% of the time a higher end product; Rem 700 Sendero/Tactical/5R, Kimber of any flavour except the Hunter range, Win Model 70’s or older Sako’s. The only cheaper rifles I have bought that do what they do best and that is their ruggedness are Rugers. My Ruger M77 MK II in 25-06 is not factory, but is a genuine 1/4-3/8MoA performer and is like this with just about any bullet you put through it. I find it very interesting that the moment a new cartridge is released, so many people read the ads about it and jump on the band wagon about it’s NEW attributes without even having shot one yet and play down ever other cartridge that came before it just because the ammo designer says so. As soon as this lockdown ends, I will be shooting 3 30 cal magnums side by side to see which one stacks up with the tightest aggregate; a 300Bee, 300RUM and 300WM. I have a clear winner in mind, but we will see how they measure up. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
