First off, which 200 gr bullets. Secondly, when you know that, go to that manufactures load data. Simple concept really.

22 and 23 would be my picks for the 200’s in the WSM. I’d bet you’ll find some goodness in those two.

Yes simple concept except Hornady doesn’t show 300WSM data, Sierra doesn’t offer free load data. Not only that, some guys have been loading the 300WSM for over ten years. I’m thinking some of them might have some good insight on what works well and what doesn’t. In these times of hard to get supplies, it doesn’t hurt to try a few short cuts.

But if you just wanna be a smart ass, feel free, this is America.

If you can get your hands on some H4831sc, that works well for me. I get a bit over 2900 fps with 200 grain Nosler partitions, 26" barrel. It is an accurate hard hitting load.

Its a published Nosler load.

Sierra sure as fugg does offer free load data and for the 300 WSM to boot. Free from apple App Store and google play. Might also be on Windows store but haven’t checked.

My best accuracy with the 200 Accubond was with H4350 in my 300 WSM. I had also tried RL19 and Magpro. Granted, they are not in your powder supply.

Thanks Swifty52 for the Sierra info.

Just an FYI Hornadys newer app on the App Store and google play also has 300 WSM data. Costs 99 cents per cartridge or 12 bucks for the complete e manual.

Slightly different, but a very successful long-range load is the 210 grain Berger VLD over H4350... Accurate, and good for 2800+ fps with a 24" barrel. Mine shot very nicely.

Yeah, he still hasn't said what bullet he wants to load. If it were me and I wanted to run a 200gr bullet, it would be the 200gr Nosler partition and yes, Nosler offers some good load data online. Free for everyone. Why the hell some guys want to take shortcuts and not use bullet manufactures load data, is beyond me. He thinks I'm a "smart azz", but some guys are just dumb azzes about this chidt..

Well Swifty thanks for the info. I didn’t know Sierra had a free app. Good thing I post my question here. I did purchase the Hornady load info off of their app.

The 200’s I have on hand are the Sierra GK, AB & ELDx.
