I'm a bit unfamiliar with the .300 Remington Ultra Magnum. I have a Remington 700 in .300 Win. Mag. Considering getting a .300 RUM for x-mas.
Are these two rounds ballisticaly similar? I know the ultra mag has higher velocity, but how much difference is there in knock-down power using the same bullet? eg. Hornady 180gr. A-Max
Would there be a noticeable performance difference? Should I just get another .300 win. mag.? The new rifle will be a Remington 700. Has anybody shot both, any pros and cons?
Any advice would be appreciated.
