How do these compare? My somewhat dated reloading manuals don't help on this one.
According to the current full page Hornady advertisements in The American Rifleman, the .300 RCM was designed to improve on .300 Win Mag performance, delivering more velocity with 10-15% less powder (probably a different powder?), longer barrel life, less recoil, muzzle blast & flash, in a far more compact cartridge. (Same for the .338 RCM v the .338 Win Mag.) Are there any field tests you can direct me to?
Will the RCMs fit in a short action, or do they require a long action?
How does the .300 WSM compare with the .300 RCM, and the .300 Win Mag?
