Scoped this up today and took to the range. Impressive accuracy at 100 yards with 150gr SST's. Barks a little bit but that's part of the fun.
What the hell is 300RCM?
300 Ruger Compact Magnum. Nice little thumper, but don't think they make rifles in this caliber anymore. Ammo is still available. Also made a 338 RCM as well.
Is is like the 300 wsm and wssm’s?
Shorter like those, but not quite as thick as wsm/wssm.
The goal of the .300 Ruger Compact Magnum (RCM) rifle cartridge was to provide the performance of a .300 Winchester Magnum in a shorter cartridge designed to be used in a short-action rifle. This was achieved by partnering Ruger and Hornady to develop a cartridge based on the .375 Ruger case, shortened to roughly the same length as a .308 Winchester, but with a larger case capacity.
The goal of the .338 Ruger Compact Magnum (RCM) rifle cartridge was to provide magnum-level performance in a compact, short-action rifle. It was designed to offer the power of a .338 Winchester Magnum but in a shorter, more maneuverable package, making it suitable for hunting medium to large North American game.
