Come on. Ya'll act like a 300 Roy is some shoulder mounted cannon or something and chews bits of ball joint with each trigger pull. I agree, it'll get your attention, but it's not painful. Mine's a Vanguard. I just loaded up some 165 Sierras tonight with 67 and 68 grs. of IMR4064. Should go around 2900 and 3000fps respectively. That's close to '06 velocities and these are Sierra book loads, from an old book mind you, as I don't have one of their new ones. I can run it hot or I can load it down. I choose to load down for whitetails and if I want I can charge it up to chase bigger critters or to flatten it out for open country hunting. It really is a versatile round. Is reported to be a superb candidate for 200gr. bullets.
