The 300 Project

[HOT ROD]

Thanks Ryan.

 

[Justin Crossley]

Hurry up and get this finished so you can shoot it at the sportsman's challenge.

 

[rayporter]

putting one together is almost as much fun as shooting it.

The CA Slayer break looks mean and efficient.

Are you going to detail your load work up too?

Kind of, I'm not a ladder test kind of guy. I figure with custom rifles they should be more open to what I want to shoot But I will post up everything that I try, win or lose. It should be up and running this week for a little range time, then off to get Cerakoted.

Very interested to see how the 230's go with the 9 twist, should be great.

Ryan, have you shot that brake before? Looks pretty nice.

No, I believe this is the first one they let out the door. Let me say, it works!

 

[Ryan Avery]

All in one pile

 

[William Hanson (live2hunt)]

Coming together nicely indeed

 

[Tall timber]

Looks sweet. Are you still going to put a video up ?

 

[Ryan Avery]

Yes, should be this week.

Sounds like a well thought out project. Be nice to not be lugging 15+ lbs of rifle up the hills.

What is the overall length difference between this one and your LRKM?

The 230gr hybrids are sure a hammer. Started shooting them in a 30-378 and my buddy shoots them in his RUM. Are you running Rem brass or nosler?Norma? Retumbo I assume.

I am running Bertram brass. I would not build another RUM if I had to use Rem brass.

This is what I have loaded up and ready to shoot.
H1000
Retumbo
RL33
VV570


I've shot a few elk with the 230 OTMs, they did great. Have a few friend that also hammer elk with the 230 hybrids. Can't wait for bear season

What speeds do they get out of the 30-378?

Soon as I get the rifle back I will measure it. The LRKM was 40"

I'm getting just under 3000 with RL33. I was out of retumbo when I started loading the 230s. May try a few test loads with it soon but rl33 is working great.
Are you running them close to the lands?

 

[Msowa]

pretty excited about this project Ryan. I'm building a damn near identical RUM as well.

As the guy doing the cerakote work on this build I'll be adding to this thread with some pics after I clear other jobs out of the shop.
