Default RE: 300 savage info

You won't see 300 Savage ammo just any old place these days, but it once was a very popular round. It was first loaded to approximate the 30/'06 ammo of its day, with a 150-grain bullet at 2700 FPS MV. Today, it's down to 2650 or so, but still is nothing to sneeze at. It is closest in performance to the 308 WIN., which it resembles physically. A good little cartridge, for sure.
