[QUOTE="Bird Dog, post: 553553, member: 36856"] First let me say it is great to be a new member! Today was the first chance I had to go out to the range and try my new Savage Model 16, 300 WSM. I had went through Speedy Gonzales recommendations for barrel break in and had reloaded some 208 Amax with Hodgen H4350, wasn't too impressed with the results. Below are some of the results.

At 64.5grs. the bolt was showing signs of getting a little heavy. Also, looks like I will be getting some RL-17. [/QUOTE]
