Jeff,
That's a fine rifle.
I have a 300wsm and did loading for a friend that has the same model as you do.
His liked the same recipe as mine - 180 Accubond w/ 69gr of R22 for a MV of just over 2900fps.
I use a VX3 2.5x8 B&C reticle on my 300wsm and the reticle matches quite nicely with that load to 450 yards.
Thanks for the positive report. I was pretty certain I made a good deal, just not familiar with Remington rifles. I know M700 have excellent reputations though.
I don't reload so I'll be experimenting with factory stuff. I am hoping that Barnes loads work well in it.
I have been planning to take up reloading but never seem to get around to it.....too many hobbies if that makes sense.
As much as I like the FX series of scopes, I was just looking at the VX3i 2.5X8 B&C online yesterday. It looks interesting.
Appreciate the feedback!
Jeff
