Just test fired these put 4 rounds less than the size of a nickel.
Winchester brass
Sierra gameking SPT BT 165gn
IMR 4895 53gn
CCI LR #200
OAL 2.86
Im shooting a Savage 10GXP3 and the trigger is way heavy, if I lighten it I could pull the group even tighter.

Bob

Robert,
The Sierra 165gr Gameking is a very accurate bullet.
I've shot it through my 25" Sako 308Win with 0.25MOA @ 100metres. I'm in the process of testing it out to 500m. Expect it will do well.
Regards,
Aussie Hunter

Im taking mine out pig hunting this weekend, hope to find some so I can see the results

Bob how do you like the 300 WSM ? How is it on recoil? Have you tryed any other powders?

I'm also loading the 165 Sierra SPBT and getting half-inch groups. Using 72gr of Reloader 22 and Federal large rifle primers, I'm not seeing any pressure signs. (I don't think magnum primers are necessary for any WSM.) Mine is a Winchester Stainless Classic.

Off the subject, but I think on target:

My hat is off to you Sarg, and to anyone wearing a uniform in these troubles times. Happy hunting, and come back safe. (I don't mean pig hunting!)
