largest case per caliber choice?

Been shooting the 257 Weatherby for about 30 years now. It set the bar pretty high for shooting fast and flat, it's still tough to beat by much even after all these years of "improvements".

I have a 30XC reamer and a 40" 6-twist barrel blank for it....

The only practical reason for it is there's several ranges around here that says nothing over 30 cal, and I like to FAFO.

Carbine barrels on bolt rifles is a fad with many flaws. It will pass.

ohhhh, I don't know about that. Suppressor availability, popularity and efficiency has made short barrels the perfect choice for me and I'll never change.
I shoot plenty of 24-26-28" rifles for competition...all with brakes...but when I go into the field, everything is 18" or less with a can.
In fact, I'm considering a 12-14" barrel for a 22 Creed coyote barrel.

The need for barrel length to hunt effectively was a fad that's finally dying.

I made a 6.5-.338 RUM and a 7-.338 RUM. Why? More velocity. Like they say in drag racing: No substitute for cubic inches.

"No replacement for displacement".

Allen express, Allen magnum, lazzeroni, enabler, cheytac......all hold big payloads

For now I still like my Wm, RUMS, and
Weatherby Mags.
Someday my 308 base cartridges will become my favorite.
