300 WM loads
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.

IMR-4831 From 59.4 grains to 74.6 grains - Winchester WLR Primer

Start low...work up....

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?
