[QUOTE="jakes10mm, post: 650473, member: 28011"] Thank you for the "pick-me-up"! The owner of one of the local gun shop is a 300 Wearthby-man. When asking to input/advise, he repeatedly states "weatherby" when he talks 300's. I'll try to suppress my internal grin in the future. I've been very happy with this Remington. Here is the accuracy test at 100yds with the Speer 180gr SP's (over IMR4350 @ 3037fps). The top hole was my first shot...still getting accustom to 300WM. I concentrated, calmed down and placed the next three shots into the 1/2" triangle. The second picture is the targets for my Berger 190s (left) and 210gr (right). They hit considerably higher; need to make some scope adjustments. I changed my aim point with the 210s after the first shot. Drop the high hole down into the diamond and I'll call both bullets a solid 1" grouping without any real load development (I bought sample packs from Brownells...12 bullets of each type, which I used 6 for velocity tests and 6 for accuracy). The two stray shots in the left target are from my 358Win...my cool down rifle between 300WM shots. [/QUOTE]
