Anyone Using 300 Win. Mag Obermeyer Chamber? Experiences?

Hello all!

I'm looking into a new custom 300 Winchester Magnum rifle build for longer-range open country hunting of mule deer. I'm considering an Obermeyer 300 Win chamber for this (prints attached), and am curious if anyone has any personal experience with it.
  • I'm wondering, with handloaded ammunition, how long I can expect the rounds to be when compared to SAAMI if I were to seat bullets to touch the throat?
  • Considering using hunting bullets in the 180 to 200 grain range, one being the 185 Berger hunting.
  • Rifle would be fed from a Hawkins Hunter DBM.
  • For range practice, how well does this chamber handle factory loads. I have some Federal Premium 185s to use.
  • Rifle would be a 10 twist, 26"
Thanks in advance. I'm not finding a lot of personal experiences with this chamber and am hoping for some good information.
