    300 Rum is generally a single feed when running big projectiles seated out even on a long action so I figure it's better to have a shorter, lighter action.

    My load I'm running is getting the 230 bergers moving along at 2950fps.

    3.3kg all up without the bipod!!!

    This is my 4th terminator rifle and I couldn't be happier with all of them!
    Thanks again @kiwigreg

    New Cooper 92 in 300 win, first time out, 200gr ELD-x Hornardy factory seams to shoot well, 180 federal blue box not so much,
    Its pretty light 7lbs 4 oz, 3.2kg, so a Kg lighter than my 300H&H, pretty lively, but I am at moa out as far as 300m, of course cant find another box of Hornardy 200gr, but have Redding dies on order.
    picked up 190gr Accubonds and 200gr ELD-X and have partions on hand.
    Fitted a Z6 3x18 with BRH, bought used.

    Yea it probably wood, but its a hunting rifle, and I hate brakes with a passion, I will get a suppressor, for it, once its back in NZ, I can shoot it well enough, and have harder kicking rifles, its a typical light weight rifle and is slappy and hard to shoot well, consistency. I've only just got it, and am still getting used to it, and developing a couple loads, then I will move the 300H&H on.

    All that muzzle brake will do is give muzzle brakes a bad name

    Loud, obnoxious and antisocial, brakes regardless of performance have a bad name as a birth right.

    yep,
    three rounds in the mag takes it to 7lbs 7 oz.
    Bare rifle was 5lbs 7 oz, not bad, esp as the action length, is good for a 300 H&H sized case. They only $200-250 more, than a Sako carbon light, from prophet river in Firearms in Canada, was going to order in a 280 AI, 7mm mag or 6.5x284, when the 300win came up,

    Same girl new dress.



    Bare rifle weight before 3.444kg
    And after replacing the Sako stock and bottom metal with a Stug stock and alloy trigger guard its 2.691kg for a saving of 0.753kg or over one and a half pounds lighter!
