Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Long Range Hunting 243 WSSM / 105gr A-Max / H-1000....First Visit!

now back on topic..

RC: I don't run a 243 WSSM, but I do shoot a fast twist 6mm Rem on a Rem LA. after testing 15 different powders, only one was really unacceptable..

but clearly with the 105 A Max, the 107 Sierra HP, the 105 Bergers, and the 115 Bergers, the two velocity/accuracy champs were RL 19 and H1000...

The 115 Bergers launch at 3250 fps out of a 24 inch Pac Nor barrel with a one in 17 twist, and the 105-107 bullets launched at 3300 fps...

not sure how close in capacity the WSSM is to the 6mm Rem, but doing the 6mm on a Long Action, definitely upped the cartridge's velocity potential..
