300 rum and 200 partitions?

[FOTIS]

I am thinking of trying these bullets in my Sendero. Of all the bullets around and all the 300 rums I had I never tried the 200 NP. Now I have Q/L and tons of reloading data but I am wondering what you had luck with.

Please advise on loads accuracy and velocity. Thank you.

First ammo I ran through my .300 RUM a few years ago was some Remington factory stuff, with the 200 gr Nosler Partition.

Average velocity was in the neighborhood of 3190 fps, with a couple of individual shots breaking 3200 fps. Decided right then and there that the .300 RUM was "enough gun." Very impressive. I don't know if all the 200 grain stuff is loaded to that level, but that box of Remington ammo was Seriously Stout. Accurate too.

Pop, we had very good luck in my buddies Sendero with the 200 gr AB and WC872.

Pop,

A buddy of mine used to own a 300 RUM (M700 AWR that was stolen) and he shot the Remington 200 gr PT factory loads. They killed elk dead fast. Accuracy was right around 1 MOA, pretty good for factory loads.

Speaking of Factory loads, in my buddies Sendero, we also shot the Remington premium with the 150gr Scirocco. Great shooting load, 5 shots under .75".
