I'm new to this caliber. What are your most accurate 180 gr loads for this round? Help me out guys. I've got a used A-bolt that just won't shoot the ammo it came with.

300 Winchester, 76 grs. of Rl-15, you might want to start 5% below and work up. Shoots in all 300 Win. that I've tried it in.

74.1 grains IMR 4831 behind 180 gr. Nosler Partitions. This seems to be an exact copy of Federal's Premium load. I have a Browning A-Bolt with 26 inch barrel that gets a chronographed 3160 fps from this load and shoots right at 1 MOA on my good days.

Start slow and work up slowly!

Best of luck

80g. of H-1000 behind a Sierra 180 Pro Hunter does real well in my Savage 116 but you should be able to get exceptable groups with any powder that has been recomended, if not try a different bullet weight.

Ray:

Are you sure you don't mean to use 76 gr of Rel 22???

Rel 15 seems a bit fast?
