OK Team!!!!
Thinking of working a load for a rifle a hunting partner is selling. Not sure I want the rifle, but thought I could work a load for it to make the decision easier. He is a snowbird so I will have access to the rifle for 5 months while he is sunning himself down south. Man, I can't wait to be retired.
Rifle is a HS precision 300 RUM with a 24" 1:10 twist barrel.
Thinking the 175 grain or 213 grain HH. Also considering the...maybe the 223 grain, though I was kind of thinking faster in this rifle might tickle my fancy a little more.
What do you guys think??? .338 RUM....is it really all that and a bag of chips??? I love my .338 lapuas and just think the RUM will disappoint me in the long run. Light and fast or heavier in this beast of a rifle???? Never owned a RUM so looking for anyone's thoughts.....is it worth throwing a couple hundred dollars at to see if I like it??
