[QUOTE="Blackhawk, post: 1895694, member: 105459"] [I]I myself prefer the Hornady 180 grain SST in a .300 Win mag.[/I] This bullet has a B.C. of .0480 and prints very well ( under 1/2" MOA @ 100 yds. remembering that this is a working rifle and not a safe queen ). Couple this with 72.9 grains of Alliant RL -22 powder and you are good to go.( compressed powder load , MV average = 2882 FPS ) I have used this recipe successfully in the harvesting of several fine animals. OBTW the ranges were between 75 yds. - 375 yds. on Elk , Moose , and Alaskan Bear and all were clean one shot kills, however some were taken under less than ideal weather conditions [I][B]This load has proven itself for me with optimal bullet expansion and an average weight [/B][/I][B][I]retention of 78 -87 percent for recovered bullets ![/I][/B] [/QUOTE]
