My Win. Match .30BR and my own .30/03(1.6" & '06 taper)ctg., both slightly smaller than the new .30 Rem case's capacity, I'm sure, will easily do 2,800 with 130gr. bullets and 2,540fps with 165's. For deer, I'd opt for a decent 150gr. or the 165 Sierra HP hunting bullet. 180gr. bullets will run 2,250fps.
Such as the loads above are in the smaller cases, I suspect handloads would improve on RP's ballistics somewhat, if the action allows. It would be a good ctg. for a bolt gun on a Mauser or shorter action.
