300 Weatherby Load
« on: September 06, 2023, 06:55:19 PM »
Thousands of pistol rounds, this is my venture back in to Rifle
85, 85.5 and 86 grains of H1000 , Barnes triple shocks 3.6000 OACL... all chamber without issue.
Redding Dies and my Dillon 550 though it was one step at a time
will see what the target and chrono tell me...

didn't like the pics I tried to post...

Yes,that happens quite a bit here.
Retirement; The art of doing very little,very slowly

Expert; Someone who knows so much about so little

If you live in the swirl of the drain,inevitably you'll wind up in the cesspool.

Remember 10534

Sorry... Yesterday was the last and final day for any and all complaints whatsoever.

81 grains 7828 , 200 grain partition traveling 3040 fps. This load is out of a mark v with a heavy custom krieger barrel 26”. Federal 215 gm primers. This load and gun will consistently shoot this grouping if I do my part.

Favorite load for everything in my .300 'Bee. 150 Barnes TTSX over 88 gr of 7828SSC, sparked by a Fed 215 primer. First two shots high right moved down and left 3rd shot between two groups, 4th and fifth shots about 1 in high and nearly touching. Minute of elk and works for me.

that is something I noticed with my factory loads as well for both my 257 and 300. They seem way more than MOA that they claimed...

I have one rifle that really likes IMR7828SC with 180TSX and CCI200
I have loaded with IMR4350 (180 BT) and RL22 (300 AB and 200 PT), four rifles, different load for each
