hey fellas, I got my box of Nosler custom brass yesterday and i am going to share a little on it. The 50 count box i bought for my 300 RUM averaged 283.4 grains had a high of 284 grains a low of 282.7 with a max spread of 1.3 grains (not bad). I have seen way worse from other manufactures but...

I appreciate all the comments fellas. i would like to find a good smith near fort worth but so many of the listings are places that don't actually do anything other than install scope rings and think they can bore site a rifle. Word of mouth in this area has to be tempered against whose mouth it...

hey fellas, I am wondering has anyone used Hart rifle barrels. I am going to have my 300 Rum trued and barreled and have been thinking about having Hart do it. since this is my first to have this done i would also like to pick the minds of the guys as to who i should considered to do this and...

If your velocity just doesn't make sense, maybe your chronograph or other method used to determine velocity is wrong . I have sent my chrony back to be calibrated before.

I would love to use the 150's as a varmint round.

last weekend a fellow hunter and friend was robbed on his way back to Texas from Kansas. my friend was on his way back from a week long deer hunt in Kansas he stopped for lunch a hundred miles or so from his house. while he was in the restaurant ordering his food some punks were stealing his...

http://s293.photobucket.com/albums/mm57 ... CF5133.jpg This rifle is 99 percent in perfect shape. This scope is not going to stay on the rifle, the scope on it now is a junk bushnell scope. the other scope is far better

260fan, Since you were doing break in i would ask did you clean the rifle right after you bought it. I have bought rifles from stores like Cabela's or what not that have cleaned the rifles several times. Unfortunately the people who cleaned it know as much about guns as they do rocket science...

corbin9191, A stock Remington 700 will not stabilize the 240 SMK. The twist rate is just too slow. The 190 or 200 gr SMK has less drop at any range than the 240 SMK. The only way to make use of the 240 SMK is to switch to a top brand 30" fast twist barrel. If you need a scope i suggest...

corbin9191, The 300 RUM is one hell of a cartridge to say the least. I have a SPS and it is truly a sweet shooting gun. The recoil pad they put on the 700 lineup is the best of any make or model, it absolutely tames the recoil. But you have to ask yourself 1. do i need this much power? 2 what...

GRT338 I had to open Cabelas up this morning and that meant no sleep from work last night but gotta do what ya gotta do. It would have been cool to meet this morning. It was a quick trip but i guess i always have time for a elk sandwich:'). I would be nice to get a few guys from this forum who...

GRT338 I was able to get some primers. I really appreciate the info . The trading thing still stands if there is some thing you cannot find just write.

GRT338 I am wondering did you purchase some of those 9 1/2 mag primers? I am wondering because iam in desperate need of some of them. I would like to do some kind of trading or something to get maybe 1 or 2 hundred to keep my RUM's fed until i can find some myself. I go to Cabelas religiously...
