Default RE: Remington Ultra Mags

ORIGINAL: younggun243

Has anyone used these before?
From what I understand, Remington makes the Remington Ultra Magnums(or, RUM) and takes a Magnum, and Re-Magnumizes it.
What are the pros and cons?
Re-Magnumizes? Is that a new word?

The RUM family of cartridgesare based on a different case altogether than the traditional magnums. It's non-belted and has more internal capacity, thus it holds more powder which results in slightly more velocity with the same bullet weight.

I've never owned one myself, but I like the idea of a non belted case, for no other reason than I just think they look better.
