[QUOTE="IdahoCTD, post: 1276882, member: 13110"] I've built and shot a couple different 300 Weatherby Imp's or 300 H&H Imp's over the years and stopped going the fireforming route. I've done a 308 Baer, 30-358STA (which Kenny Jarrett latter coined the 300 Jarrett), and a 30-8mm Rem mag. By far the easiest is the 30-8mm Rem. mag. It's basically a 7STW neck up to 30 caliber or a 8mm Rem mag necked down. You just neck brass up or down and shoot it. The velocites and loads are almost identical between them all. I have one with a 27" barrel that shoots 210's 3100fps and another with a 29" barrel that shoots 150's and 155's 3600fps for smacking rockchucks. They are all about 100-150fps faster than a 300wm.
