    300WM 208GR A-MAX load recommendations.

    These are my results to this point. Load #1: Rl-22 @ 70gr, Win brass, F215 = 2654fps & .662" 3-shot group. Load #2: Rl-22 @ 71gr, same = 2731fps & 1.17" 3-shot group. Load #3: Rl-22 @ 72gr, same = 2779fps & .642" 3-shot group. All with no pressure signs. Do these velocities look...

    300WM 208GR A-MAX load recommendations.

    What about loads for the 210gr Bergers and Sierras. Would they be comparible to the 208gr A-Max? Thanks, WVHILLBILLYJLM

    300WM 208GR A-MAX load recommendations.

    I just ordered some 208gr A-Max bullets for my 300WM. Does anyone recommend any loads for this bullet or similar bullet with Rl-22 or IMR-4831? They will be shot out of a 24" 1-10" twist barrel and will be used for hunting out to about 500yds. Thanks for any info!! WVHILLBILLYJLM

    Barrel contour?

    I just purchased a new Remington 700BDL SS RMEF 300WM today. I was wondering how much of a disadvantage I have with the factory contour at longer ranges? I will be shooting no further than 600yds. Thanks, WVHILLBILLYJLM

    Bergers at close range?

    I have read alot about the performance of Berger bullets as a hunting bullet at long range but I was wondering if anyone had any experience with them on deer at close range. I am looking at 50yds to 500yds at 308Win, 7mm RM and 300WM velocities. Any thoughts and experiences would be...

    Is this normal?

    AJ, I will check the spring and the ram. The brass is new for the gun I load for and older brass for the other. I had recently noticed this problem and the bullets do seem harder to seat. In fact, two of the rounds that I loaded the other day had what appeared to be copper shaved off of the...

    Is this normal?

    I have been handloading for about five years and still consider myself as a beginner with alot to learn. What my possible problem is that when I raise the ram to put the case into the full length sizer die, I have to guide the case in by hand because it looks like it is misaligned and it will...

    Hello

    I been around this site for a while but never really posted. I can't say that I shoot long distance by the standards on this board but I do shoot to 500 yards with three kills at that distance (buck,doe and a groung hog). Like I said, I don't shoot really long distances but I believe that...
