Another email request at home by several people:
I know they are boring to some, but a few of the guys asked for it,.... My apologies to the guys who get bored with this.

Range Report: Blue Dot & 300 Win Mag

Rifle Used: Browning A Bolt,

Barrel length: 26 inches

Capacity to Rim: 70 grains

Primer Used: CCI large Rifle
Case Used: Remington


Bullet: 150 grain Remington SP:

28 grains: 2383 fps
29 grains: 2392 fps
30 grains: 2441 fps

31 grains: 2487 fps
32 grains; 2526 fps
33 grains: 2560 fps
34 grains; 2634 fps
35 grains: 2688 fps

Several rounds had a stiff bolt lift at 35 grains. I would recommend to stop at 33 to 35 grains.
Bullet was seated to the cannelure.



Bullet: Remington 165 grain Corelokt SP

28 grains: 2221 fps
29 grains: 2236 fps
30 grains: 2331 fps

31 grains; 2350 fps
32 grains: 2383 fps
33 grains: 2412 fps
34 grains; 2486 fps
35 grains; 2530 fps

1. Even thought several rounds had a stiff bolt lift at 35 grains of Blue Dot with a 150 grain Rem SP, that was not experienced with a 165 grain Rem SP.
2. Bullets were seated to the cannelure.
Work up your loads for safety sakes. 33 to 34 grains would be recommended max.


Cheers and Good shooting

Thank you for posting these. I can't wait to give it a try.

don't appologize; people who get bored w/ it, you're not holding a gun to their heads making them read it.

anyone so stupid he reads something he's not interested in deserves what he gets.
