May be a little too slow of a powder.I'm sure it will work,but you may run out of case before you get to the velocity you are looking for.69.0grs of Reloader-22 gives me nearly a compressed load with a 165gr bullet in my 300WSM.

I am using it in my .300 WSM (a CZ Model 3). I am using 69.0 grains under a 200 grain Nosler AccuBond. This is a well below 1 MOA load in my rifle. It's close to maximum, so I recommend that you start lower and work your way up.

I used it in my 7 WSM, I think it'd be about model perfect for the 300 shorty.

I just bought 8 lbs of the stuff and use it in my 300 WSM not to mention the 6.5x284.

It's a natural in the 7mm's and great all arounder.

Ramshot Hunter was the best out of several powders tried in a friends A-Bolt.

I will agree with Ramshot Hunter.
We use it in my friends 300 WSM. This stuff works great.

Just my 02 cents

Ramshot Hunter works great and N165 works even better.

Another vote for Hunter.


Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Give a man a welfare check, a forty ounce malt liquor, a crack pipe, an Obama phone, free health insurance. and some Air Jordan's and he votes Democrat for a lifetime.

180's and 200's.

Nothing gets better speed and accuracy. Except now RL 17.

I prefer Hunter in the 165's.
