Looking for what is the optimal balance between velocity and high BC of heavier bullets for 300 RUM. Looking at ballistic combos, at least one site suggests that a 165gr is the best combo. Any other opinions accompanied by data?
If your RUM has an 1:8 twist barrel our new Barnes Bullets 208 LRX should be a hammer.
I haven’t looked at Barnes in years, just noticed that 212 bore rider with a .705 G1. Appears to be extremely long, 8 twist fast enough? I can get out to 3.8+ OAL in my PRC , it’s got me wondering if it’d work bearing surface wise as a repeater . What was that bullet designed for?I’d guess it’s still going to be a considerable jump.
Bore riders kinda came and went pretty quick in the ELR game. Have you worked with these at all?
