300 RUM Recoil

[RPA 6MM BR]

Does that also mean there are no 5.56, 7x62 x 51, 7x57, 30-06 etc etc etc users in Devon too….?

I totally agree but that is what I was told when I nearly applied for the 338 lap.

Trouble is mate they will no longer issue a 338 lap for non target purposes so for deer control it's a no no.

Rubbish. My 338LM is for Deer and AOLQ, as is my mates who's just got his conditioned for deer and AOLQ too, and I know of two users in Devon and Cornwall with 338LM for field use.

That is good news Pete, I hope thats the case when I can afford one, its not what the calibre is its where you point and shoot it surely

Just telling you what I was told! I have had many different calibres but they were not happy with the 338 lapua magnum.

To the user's of the 300 rum. I have the opportunity to purchase a nice semi custom 300 Rum. It is fitted with a brake but I would rather swap that out for a mod. My question is, what's the recoil like? I know it's easy to give the macho answer but please answer honestly. I have had numerous 300 win mags and 7mm Rem mags but what is this beast like?

The recoil is significant, more than my .416. I have been shooting my .300 RUM with a muzzle brake on, which manages the recoil well, but is violent on the ears! With a moderator the Ultramag is a pussycat !

Yesterday afternoon the Trading Post had a like-new Remington 700 in 300RUM with a low-end Vortex scope on board for a whopping $500 US. When I inquired, they had no new brass, but did have 12 once fired casings and a box of Remington factory ammo. This is what I got when I went looking at one of our larger suppliers. On the Remington ad the one part that didn't turn up on the paste was that "No Back-orders Accepted", which means they don't expect it any time soon.~Muir
