[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 53919, member: 12"] Taz like Boyd says, I would start with H4350. For some reason my gun like it better than anything else (MRP, MRP2, RL22). Have not tried the 4831sc in the wsm. Think you will find that somewhere in between 58-61 gr h4350 with either 190 or 210 jlk. Start .010-,015 into lands and work out after finding sweet spot. Note that I test my guns using the ladder method to find sweet spots and then final test off one of those spots. I do not need to push max velocity and have found out the hard way when you are right on the ragged edge, you can get good accuracy as long as the temp and humidity do not get high. If they do your load will go to hell fast. I stay back from the top end and my 300 is only pushing around 2900 with either bullet. Some guys have tried and found that their gun likes the 215 primers better than the 210. Also do not be surprised if the 190 shoots better than the 210 in the 300 wsm. I have shot my best and most consistent groups with the 190 and think I am going back to it next year. BH PS You will love Clays guns and I think his barrels are the absolute best of anything out there. [ 09-22-2003: Message edited by: BountyHunter ] [/QUOTE]
