Home Forums Reloading Big Game Rifles 325WSM

Picked up as 325 WSM and some 160gr TTSX's. Also have a couple hundred 180gr Nosler CT's to try. Anybody else loading these combos? Not finding many book loads but I hate to re-invent the wheel.

I used 160 TTSXs all last year to take a dall sheep, a mountain goat, a moose, and a deer....works alright, but I think if you want to shoot 160 grainers go with the 300 WSM.....now I shoot 200 NPTs in my 325 WSM with great success as well.

I bought a Winchester Model 70 chambered in 325 WSM here on the fire and it is Quite fond of the 180gr Nosler CT's. I have yet to shoot a deer with these bullets but they group very well.

Haven't shot any of those "light" bullets in my 325wsm. I shoot 200 grain Accubonds and partitions well. Also just started shooting 220 grain Sierras now too. Figured if I wanted a lighter baller, the 7-08 or 7mm Rem Mag would be a great way to go.

Have fun with your rifle. I hope it shoots as well as mine has.

I also shoot heavier bullets (195-200 gr) in my 325. Mine likes H4350, but I've heard good things about RL 17 also.

My 325WSM when it was a 23" barrel shot the 160s at 3250 fps....after the chop job (down to 18" they slowed to 3050 fps with RL-17. Still get 2820 ish fps with the 18" barrel and 200 grain partiions...easily be 2950+ fps if it was 23" barrel.

Shot my Kimber 325 wsm again today. Decided to mount a Leupold VXII on her that I picked up and had to sight it back in. Man I like how it shoots. Very accurate and a definite game getter with the 200 gr Accubonds.
