I was wondering if you all have any 180 grain xlc or triple shock recipes that are very accurate? thinking about playing around with some bullets for 300 win mag.
Thank You

It's not that Liberals are unwilling to listen to another point of view, they are just simply amazed that another one exists.

180gr loads
75.0- 75.5grs of RL-22 or 70.0grs. of IMR 4350
These are max loads, so work up to them.
Both should give you MOA or less.

75 grains of H4831 has shot exceptionally well in several .300 mags for me with 180 grain TSX's. 3050 fps in 26-inch barrel.

Do you all use mag primers in your 300 Win Mags? I've been working on 300WM loads w/ 168gr & 180gr TTSX using Re17 and CCI BR-2's. I'm getting 3300fps and 3100fps respectively from a 24 inch tube w/ no pressure at 1 grain over allient's listed max for both. I'm getting better Std Dev's and smaller groups with the cooler primer and have had no ignition issues even in temps below 32F. I know Re17 seems fast for the 300 Win Mag but I've really been impressed with the velocity and accuracy I've gotten from it. I'm convinced that out of a 24 or even 26 inch barrel there isn't anything to be gained with the slower powders besides more muzzle flash.

It may not be the exactly ideal load for every rifle, but it is good in most. I've been guilty of loading that a lot for 300 toting friends.
