Hi
I currently use a 300WSM in F Class Open based on a Barnard P action, Krieger 1:10, 32 inch barrel and tracker style stock. My load uses Berger 190 and 210 gn VLD projectiles
I have also shot the 215 and 230 gn Berger Hybrid projectiles with great accuracy but I would like to launch the 230gn Berger Hybrid in the low 2800fps range for the longer ranges of F Class competition.
That is where I need your help. I like the fat belt less magnum cases and read on this site of people necking down the 375 Ruger to 30 cal.
Could some one with first hand information on the 30-375 Ruger please post how I go about forming the brass down, what dies I need, reamer size, neck turn size or no neck turn. Any information would be greatly accepted.
I was also thinking about using the 300Win Mag but as I said I did not want to use the belted mag case.
I thought of using the 300 RUM as dies and brass are readily available and no forming is needed, any thoughts or comment ?
Cheers
Paul
