I have heard that the sharp shoulder on these rounds can cause feed problems unless the gun has a single stack magazine so that the rounds feed straight forward with the push from the bolt.
I really like the concept of the short mag, especially with the lack of a belt and the short action that can be used while still nearly matching the belted 300 Win Mag.
My questions, for those of you who have them and especially if you reload them, are:
1. What rifle do you use for this round?
2. Does it always feed reliably? Is it single stack?
3. Do you get ballistics equal to or close to the published reloading manuals?
4. What kind of case life are you getting?
5. Are there any quirks with the round that I should know about that typically are not discussed in the gun press?
Thanks for your help.
