300 Weatherby combined with 200gr nosler partition hand loads has done everything i have ever asked it to do from 40 yards out to near 600 yards. The winchester model 70 has never let me down. rain wind snow and sleet sometime snow up to my ass it gets it done with 1 well placed shot. The bull i took at long range was dropped in his tracks with a high shoulder hit 3/4 the way up this is a deadly spot to hit them they simply drop and dont move bullet broke both shoulders and still made an exit. Recoil on my rifle is not really that bad with the custom break it is loud but i feel well worth it. I think the combination I am using is a great choice you can really hear that 200gr pill smack them. My 1st load was the 180 partition and like every other handloader i tried the 200 a little more recoil but shot ALOT better so i went with it. as it sits today I still shoot the 200gr with 75.0 of IMR 4350 load is sub moa and dont expect more from a light weight hunting rifle.
