[QUOTE="victor, post: 163029, member: 3361"] Hi All, Just received a new rifle in .300WSM, Borden Alpine Action, Rock Creek 5R, #3 barrel, H-S Precision stock. Total weight 8.75 lbs. This is my walking longrange hunting rifle. I am heading to WY for elk this season. I need to develop a load by mid Sept. My preference is to shoot 180gr Accubonds or TSX at a speed of 3,000 fps. I'm just starting out with load development. The tightest consistent group I currently have is .56" using MRP-69.0gr & 180 A-Max moly coated (right at 3,000fps). The only other powder I've tried is H4350 and I think the MRP shows more promise at this time. Oh & primers used were BR2, 210M & 215M. The 180 Accubonds and 180 TSX seem to put 2 bullets touching and one of the 3 seems to stray from formation. I'm not too keen on using the A-max for Elk. Anybody have any pet recipe's they would be willing to share? Looking forward to your knowledge base, Kind regards, Vic [/QUOTE]
