[QUOTE="B23, post: 723536, member: 13222"] Since it sounds like you will be shooting this 300 RUM quite a bit and weight isn't your #1 concern, I would think about doing a 30-32in. tube in a contour that would allow you to have the barrel set back and re-chambered when the time comes. In theory, it should/would give you a longer usable barrel. Also, since you are going with a fairly longish barrel I wouldn't skimp on contour. I would use at least a Sendero or larger contour. The longer you go in length the bigger the contour needs to be. [/QUOTE]
