Home Forums Reloading Big Game Rifles Favorite 300 WSM loads please.

RL-22 with 180 AB's.

I'm a fan of the 200 gr bullets in my 300 WSM.....
68 grs of IMR 7828, 200 Accubond, Norma brass lit by a 215 primer = 2917 average of 3 shots SD 4.1....1/2" MOA at 100 yds
I never played with seating depth...just loaded to fit the mag well on my CZ model 3 (Montana 1999)

300 WSM
168gr Barnes tsx
69.5 RL-19
Fed 215
Win case

Anyone try 150 tsx? the 168 gr seems popular here, I may have to give it a try.

I am a 150 gr bullet fan in both my 280's & 300 WSM's. The TSX or TTSX is too long to suit me in the 280's. Currently the 155 Scenar has my full attention in the 300 WSM's.

I am not a fan of monolithic bullets.

Why?

This one shoots very well out of my buddies M70 300WSM EW.

WW cases, CCI250s, RL19, 2.900 COAL, 165 AB. Runs 3130 across my chrono.

I really need to find another 300 WSM... Need to find one in a EW for a decent price..

I don't care for the minimal expansion they most often exhibit.

I've used them exclusively for the last half dozen years and have yet to see one expand minimally. That's only a couple dozen animals ranging from coyote to elk between 140 and 511 yards, though.

I know mention was made about variable freebore. I am getting ready to start loading for a friends M70 fwt in 300wsm. Are they limited by magazine length or is a kiss generally doable with, say, 180 NABs or Partitions?

I would go with 180 Partitions and 64 grs H4350 or 65 grs R17.

2950 fps w/H4350 and 3000 fps w/R17.

That has to be the all-time best shooting 300 WSM load.


Substitute 175 SMK's for cheap practice.
