I just became the proud owner of a pre-64 Win model 70 it has a 27" SS barrel with a one in ten & one half twist and is chambered in 300H&H mag and has a 2.5x10x56 Schmidt & Bender scope.I would like some suggestions for some accuracy loads. What bullet weights would work best with this twist,what powders are best in this cartridge? Thank you for your help Wayne [This message has been edited by Wayne (edited 12-28-2001).] | ||

That doesn't sound like a factory Winchester barrel for that rifle. It is also a little slow on the twist, so I would stay within the 150 to 168 grain bullet weights. | |||

I have an old Sako bolt that was rebarreled with a 24" Hart barrel. I have done some of my longest one shot deer and elk kills with that rifle. I settled on a 180 partition and IMR4831 with a WW lg rifle primer. I get right at 3000 fps and its sub moa out as far as 300 yds. Shot a few deer and two elk at 350 yds + and the old, obsolete, don't need a belt, too long a powder column, ancient, .300 H&H killed them all in short order with a single shot. Great old cartridge. H4350 and IMR4350 also worked well with 165's and 180's the only two weights I loaded for. For the heavy stuff the 200 partitons are a nice bullet too. Frank N. | |||
