craigster Report post Posted October 15, 2014 Thanks for the advise. I have been out and shot both loads. Both bullets where grouping as needed. I like the heavier load and want to try the 210 Berger. I just can't get my hands on any as of yet. Still looking.... Thanks again and keep the suggestions coming...

sjvcon Report post Posted October 18, 2014 More grains = more better for mine. Anything under 180 has been disasterous. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rcdinaz Report post Posted October 18, 2014 I have to agree with the opinion on the heavier bullets, they tend to maximize the reason you would buy a RUM. I shot 180 well for the most part but when I decide to get a scope on mine again 190's, 200's, and 210's will be what I work on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
craigster Report post Posted October 19, 2014 Went out and tested a few loads. This one is 5 rounds of 190 Bergers, 88 gr of H1000. Think I found my load for now. Thanks all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DesertBull Report post Posted October 19, 2014 If you are going to shoot 165 grain you might as well get a .308 or 30.06 and save yourself s lot of $$$ on powder and brass 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
azsugarbear Report post Posted October 22, 2014 230 gr. Berger OTM. Same load for all the game I hunt. 300 RUM is a barrel-burner for sure, so don't want to waste barrel life having to re-zero scope every time I switch from heavier loads to light loads. Just set and forget. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
