RWS ammunition seems very accurate. My .375 H & H Magnum Whitworth M98 shot three shots of 300 gr RWS KS into a single hole at 100 yards at a very good velocity. Maybe 2900 fps out of my shortish barrel.




Did you mean 2,500fps or perhaps the most, 2.600fps?
I think 2,560fps is the most used figure for factory 300gr.
& 2,700fps for 270's.

Back in 1912, the 300's ran 2,400fps and 270's were at 2,600fps.




No, certainly faster than 2,600 fps. Maybe 2,800 fps? I forget exactly. I was surprised at both the accuracy and velocity. Pity the Conepoints are such a soft fragile bullet.

My normal Woodleigh Weldcores are mild, only doing 2,350 fps. I never went for velocity and was satisfied with an accurate load.

Are you sure? They're rather round nosed in shape.
