The 300WSM was my primary Mooser. If I were to begin again I'd use Barnes 165 TTSX and do it all quite handily. Efficient - reliable. Last edited by Rug3; 01/20/19.

Like Partitions IME I've never owned a rifle that didn't shoot a TTSX damn well. Near or far. Your Every Liberal vote promotes Socialism and is an attack on the Second Amendment.

Incredibly accurate. Nothing is gonna stop it. Your Every Liberal vote promotes Socialism and is an attack on the Second Amendment. You will suffer the consequences.

Pretty sure we're talkin' Montucky, so 1:10 and 2.85" box confines. I loaded 150 TTSX's for my son's sheep hunt is said rifle. 165 TSX/TTSX is how I'd roll. You're going to want to dig pretty deep on a brownie and possibly break some bone. 180 Partition Gold is another candidate, but like finding hen's teeth these days. Have yet to see an OEM Montucky Whizzum wearing a trite 2.85" COAL latitude. Hint. 'Course I really don't have "that" many of 'em. Laughing!.....................

Rebarrel to 284 and cut to the chase,as it'll simply throttle all things .30cal..................(grin) Brad says: "Can't fault Rick for his pity letting you back on the fire... but pity it was and remains.

You can swipe my Winny Whizzum and 208 Fodder and go play with come-ups/wind drift(though it's piss flat currently). Or grab a Montucky 7 Whizzum and squirt some 180's,that are laying in wait. The drop/drift to recoil ratio...will have you mailing it to Shaen in the morning....................(grin) Brad says: "Can't fault Rick for his pity letting you back on the fire... but pity it was and remains.
