Which 30 Cal Magnum for the new Berger 245grs?

[WeiserBucks]

I was going to say if length restrictions are going to be present a 300 norma mag improved is about the best setup you’re going to get. Could have defensive edge + P the throat and pickup some more velocity. Apples to oranges but most improved version run the 230 3030+FPS. +P and you should be equal with the 245. If length isn’t an issue then it opens up a few more options previously mentioned already.

My standard Norma has a 28" barrel and sends the 230's at 3060 with N570 and zero pressure signs. A Norma Imp or +P would surely be faster.

I like to be humble with my statements

I have worked with 5 different norma ai. The 26” tube runs the 230 at 3060 and is one of the most accurate rifles I’ve ever shot. I’ve ran the 215 hybrids in a couple of the 28” tubes up to 3285. That’s very warm. You can push the 230 up to about 3100. With a bore rider or plus p throat you should be able to get around 80 FPS more would be my guess maybe more
