338 RUM brass would be very nice as well as some 300 RSAUM brass to compete with the RP and Norma offerings.

I have shot deer with the Ranger Talons, WW JHPs, Federal Hydra-Shoks and RP Golden Sabers. By far the best performance on deer was the 155 gr Golden Saber. It was the first bullet out of all of them to exit. Just the fact that it exited wasn't the only thing; the bullet completely decimated...

Any new info yet?

How about a Model 7 Stainless topped with a 1.75x6 scope. Manageable recoil, lots of thunp on short range hogs and deer. Definately will not have to worry about bullet failure, and with 180 gr NABs loaded up to 2700-2800fps would be nice. Remember JD's post with the 338 RUM fired bullets . ...

If you are concerned about bullet construction with impacts at 25 yards, use the 160 gr NAB and all is well. I cannot think of any situations where the bullet would fail out of a 708 at 25 yards. Problem solved?

Is this Tip?

I was FL resizing my cases, bu tI was having to trim after 2 loadings. Now I am neck sizing, maintaing sub 1/2 MOA groups and have not trimmed after last 4 loadings. Actually, the cases are not stretching at all, about 0.001 after four firings. FWIW, I am shooting 52/53 SMKs and AMAX from...

Have ya'll done any testing with this bullet in 300 RSAUM? I have tried to get the 168 and 155 J4s to group well, but I always get a first or last shot flier. A typical group with the 168s will be about 3/4 MOA, but with 175 SMKs I am averaging 1/3 MOA out to 535 yards and the 178 AMAX will...

I am shooting a pair of 300 RSAUMs and a 300WM. I have shot my Model 7 next to a 300 WSM Browning Titanium, and the Model 7 outperformed the Titanium by about 50 fps with similar weight bullets (175 SMK in Model 7 and 180 NBT in WSM). HOWEVER, with 165s the WSM will outpace my Model 7, but my...

Ignore the folks talking about guns firing when the safety is switched! This happens when shadetree gunsmiths play with triggers (or fire and their life). Don't look past Rem Varminter .22-250. This will minimize the effects of the wind compared with the obvious second choice, .223. It would...

Wait for Lapua to start making Dakota's brass! Then there will be no inconsistencies with the brass. :P
