Posted By: boomer68 168gr TTSX in the .300Wby - 11/02/11
Does anyone have a favorite load with this bullet in the Bee? I am looking to give them a try and can't seem to find much for loading data. Was thinking of using 7828ssc. But also have RL22, RL25, H1000, H4831

Use your favorite 180 data and bump up till you are about 75-100 fps faster than your 180 loads. Quit if you run into great accuracy. The neat thing about the 300 wby is you don't need to load to max for effectiveness.

Work up to 84 gr or so of RL22, should be getting good at that point. OAL of 3.56, Weatherby brass. Nosler brass will be different I can assure you of that. Fed 215 Match primers. Go huntin!
I love the 160 tsx in my 300 wby, I used it last year to take my biggest buck to date. I didn't go all speed crazy with my just put 83gr 4831sc in the case and got good accuracy. I figured it was running about 3200fps.

85.5grs of H4831 gives me a chrono'd 3310fps and MOA way out there with the 168TTSX...work up from 82grs or so
