Haven't tried it yet due to my barrel twist isn't fast enough but the 175 lrx works great in my 300 win super easy to load for

I've shot a few in my 8 twist 30 Nosler. They are accurate but they are definitely single feed. There is only a short diameter section at the bullet base that will fit the case neck and then a long (smaller diameter) bore rider section dictates that the COAL becomes very long.

I have some 175 LRX to load for the 300WM when the 165's are gone

I'm hoping they'll feed in the 300 PRC.

I'm going to try them in my 300 NMI when it gets finished……

In about 6 months.

I've shot them out of my 300 PRC, 1-8 twist 26" barrel. Running 2736 fps over US869. They are shooting .5-.75 MOA and holding that out to 1k yards. Still working on loads I feel can get more speed, just haven't had time. Missed an opportunity to try on cow elk, wife wasn't in the mood for a pack out!! . I am satisfied with them.
