Thread: Ultralight 300 RUM Range Session

1st time down the range
loaded up a bunch of 230 bergers with a bunch of Reloader 33 behind it
Did a couple of groups at 100 which were promising then stretched it out
3 shots at 300 then 3 shots at 440 producing some respectable groups
needs a bit more touching up but looking very good

230g berger going 3100fps

300m


440


3.37kg 7lb 7 oz

Is that the MPC range?

Thought 440 sounded familiar.

Might need to join too

3.37kg or 7lb 7oz ready to shoot

That is light for a canon,make a good carry for hunting.

Shit that is light. My mate uses a 300 RUM sendero as his all rounder, standing shots and all....he's full nuts though

Just put a new scope on my 300 Rum, zeroed well at 100 yards need to stretch it out a bit to see how it goes. My Rem 700 weighs in at 9 pound 2 oz all up. Loads I am using are 208 gr A Max at 3170 fps and I loaded up some 212 gr ELD X at 3149 fps. At 100 yards they printed an inch apart in the bull so just need to see how they both go out further. Fired 13 rounds prone and new I had done battle with it ( no suppressor or brake)

Its bloody light for a big cannon but i recon its about the same kick as my 7mm mag pushing 162s at 3100 suppressed

Looking good Chris.

That’s awesome. Look forward to seeing it on game

What’s the barrel ? Assume it’s 26in ? Bartlein 3?
