[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1593410, member: 2736"] The 300 Weatherby is a powerful 30 Cal and will do almost anything. The case is the same size as your 340 so you can be the judge of what power it can yield. There will always be something more powerful but it was very popular at one time because it is a good cartridge. Free bore is an issue for some and the 300 Weatherby has plenty,but for good reasons, it can handle heavy 30 cal bullets seated long and pressures are very manageable. In the hands of a good shooter they can also be very accurate. A lot of rifle manufactures chambered their rifles in 300 WM and there were very popular. recoil in the ultra light Weatherby rifles is brisk, but with a standard magnum barrel contour recoil can be very manageable and with a good muzzle brake, tame.
