    338 Lapua

    I tried the 270 gr ELD X with Retumbo in my 338 RUM. It shot well but it was very destructive on crop damage deer. Exit wounds through the slats were fist size holes. I came to the conclusion that they were too soft for game. I haven't used the 285 gr ELD M. JD338

    I used the same die for a Remington 742 Carbine in 30-06. I never had a feeding issue with that rifle. JD338

    Current Production 280AI Rifles

    Don't overlook the Nosler M21 in 280 AI. https://www.nosler.com/model-21-rifles.html As Scotty mentioned, unless you are shooting 180's, a 9t is more than adequate. JD338

    Short barrel 6.5 - How about a RPM?

    I have a Weatherby Accumark Limited in 6.5 Wby RPM, 24" 8t barrel. Currently using a Leupold VX-3 2.5-8x36mm while waiting for a VX-5HD Gen2 3-15x44mm to arrive. Ram Shot Grand and Retumbo both shoot well with 140 gr AB, SB and Sierra Game King. The Barnes 127 gr LRX shot very well with Retumbo...

    35 Whelen VS 375 Ruger

    Welcome to the forum. The 35 Whelen is indeed a hammer on game. I've had my 700 Classis since 1988 and it has accounted for many WT bucks and a black bear. JD338

    35 Whelen VS 375 Ruger

    Nothing wrong with the 35 Whelen as an all around rifle for North America. I do have both, a Remington 700 Classic 35 Whelen and a Nosler M21 375 H&H Mag. Both hit hard. JD338

    WSM to 6.5 PRC?

    Dan, The 6.5 WSM was a pretty popular wildcat. The 6.5 PRC seems to be a commercial equivalent to the 6.5 WSM. Both are pretty impressive. I recently bought a Weatherby Accumark Limited in 6.5 RPM. It's a step up in performance but requires a long action and a standard.473" bolt face. JD338

    Anyone used these out of a .22-250?

    What barrel twist do you have? I had a M700 VLS in 22-250 with a 14t. I shot 60 gr PT just fine but the bullet profile changed and the new style OT wouldn't stabilize. I went to the 64 gr BSB bullet and they shot well. https://forum.nosler.com/threads/224-64-gr-bsb.18868/ JD338
