[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 426819, member: 313"] When reviewing the posted "favorite loads" of 300 Ultra Mag shooters I noticed that many of them are shooting at velocities that are easily obtainable with a 300 Wby. You would assume that people buy rifles chambered for RUM cartridges so that they can shoot at RUM obtainable velocities. However many seem content with Wby performance. Hmmmmm :rolleyes: My load for the 210 VLD loaded .015"-.020" off the rifling is 101.1 US869 in a Federal case with a GM215M primer. It usually holds less than .5moa @ 300yds and flys over my Oehler at just under 3,200 ft/sec. It also produces less pressure than any other powder that I've tried. Not many shooters seem to be using the (Hodgdon) US869 but it is certainly worth a try. [/QUOTE]
