I'm not going to have time to load for my 300 Wby this year. I'm going to use it for deer at primarily longer ranges (Ag. fields/power lines). Do you have any recommendations? Good, bad, etc? Any and all comments are welcome. Thanks. | ||

Factory Weatherby ammo in the .300 caliber has always shot well for me. Buy the least expensive ammo (180 P.E.), and it will serve you well. I have taken bear, moose, caribou, and deer with the above. | |||

I have shot a fair amount of 300 WBY factory ammo as well, and I agree with Bo Rich. I would try different factory loads till I found the one that shot best im my rifle. DOUBLE RIFLE SHOOTERS SOCIETY | |||

Factory Weatherby ammo has always shot well in both my .300 and .257 bees. | |||

I tried the 180 gr ballistic tip bullets b/c that is what I could find this weekend, and they grouped really well. I'm waiting for a box of the 180 SP to get in and try those next. How do the 180 ballistic tips work on deer sized game? | |||

The will work fine on deer sized game. They will however cause quite a bit of damage if you shoot a deer in the shoulder. Also I would not want to make a rear end shot, as when might be necessary when hunting in thick brush. I have killed deer and antelope with 165gr Ballistic Tips [reloads] in a 300 WBY and deer and wild pigs wuth 180gr BT [Remington factory] in a 300 Win Mag. DOUBLE RIFLE SHOOTERS SOCIETY | |||
