Wanting to load for a .300 Win.mag using the 165 Accubond,Lapua brass,Fed.GM215m,H-4831sc.I am hoping for 3185-3200fps. from a 25" Hart barrel.Is this velocity safely attainable with this combo?I can achieve this with RL-22 or Ramshot Hunter but want more load density and a temperature insensitive powder.Let me know what you think! Thanks, Jim | ||

Jim Im loading 78grs h4831sc 26" barrel and getting around 3100f/s Thats a max load in my rifle and i only use the brass 2 or 3 times. If your looking for full cases H1000 at 83.5 grs> didnt have any problens in temperatures from 60*f down to 15*f in the mornings Dave | |||

Jim, I don't think I could even get close in my 26" tube. I shoot the regular H4831 in it quite often moreso w/ the 180s and 190s but, occasionally w/ 168s and I believe there is better powders to achieve your goal. Have you considered IMR7828? H1000? if you want to fill the case and push em' fast, 7828 is a darn fine choice. IMR 4350 is pretty quick as well but, you may not get the full case your after. Good Luck Reloader | |||

Thanks,guys.If that is the highest velocity,I might as well shoot the 180.It is probably the better choice. Jimmy | |||

Hey Jim I load for one 300 win mag that likes the 168 gr TSX best and the most accurate powder in it is IMR4831. The Nosler #5 shows a max loading of 74 gr for 3260 fps. I will confess that I have loaded up to a grain and a half higher with no signs of pressure and velocities up to 3350 fps. Of course, work up in your own gun. ____________________________________ There are those who would misteach us that to stick in a rut is consistency - and a virtue, and that to climb out of the rut is inconsistency - and a vice. - Mark Twain | Chinese Proverb: When someone shares something of value with you and you benefit from it, you have a moral obligation to share it with others. ___________________________________ | |||

Jim; Having shot my 300 Win. Mag since 1977 and taken many many moose, I have had an opportunity to experiment with a number of loads. My favorite was a 200 Gr. Sierra BT with 74 Gr. of 4831 and WW primers. This load cronied @ 2950 '/" which I gather you consider low, but with 3875 '/# of energy at the muzzle I could live with it. Shoot safe!! I'd rather be sorry for something I'd done, than for something that I didn't do. | |||
