I've been bugging peterson alpha and adg for wsm brass for 3 years to no avail. Shot show Jan 2018 Peterson had 300wsm brass samples at their booth, was elated. But never made it to production for some reason.Great news.

Dude that's smoking from a 22" barrel!22" 300wsm, rl26 goes 2920 w/ 215s. Rl23 goes 2850, rl23 is slightly more accurate and more temp stable. Cannot wait for adg brass to come in, should be good for another 60fps with rl23. Chamber has 200k freebore and loaded length is over 3.1 in a Tikka long action.
The rl23 load was what I settled on, it was warm, no ejector marks but the web was growing a lot and dies weren't keeping it in check, giving me clickers after 3-4 firings. Hopefully the adg brass and new bullet central small base FL bushing dies remedy this.Dude that's smoking from a 22" barrel!
I love the effortless accuracy I've seem from the wsms, and with ADG FINALLY making 300 wsm brass it'll be tough to beat.
Why am I building a short barreled 30 Nos again??
Pictures from the Smith's bench...it's a Switch barrel built by Horizon FirearmsHey Venatic!
We need about 8 profile pics of your gun, man!

Got a 20 inch 300 WSM for Elk hunting. I am running 180 Berger Elite at 2900 fps with H 4350...

That particular brake is a Heathen by Insite. Horizon Firearms also owns Iota Outdoors who built the OP's stock he posted above that he bought from Stocky's. They also make the rings pictured above on my rifle.Horizon Rifle? What brake?
Can you pm .e with your loads? Just wondering powder charge you use-- I get 100fpsxless from my 24" barrel and I'm just wondering if I jave a slow barrel22" 300wsm, rl26 goes 2920 w/ 215s.

Just curious...They have their testing done, production scheduled for 2nd q this year. 300wsm only. Case capacity is 1gr more than norma,but undoubtedly more robust case head and web area.
They told me they are ready to run a batch (no idea how many) BUT they are so swamped with all their other brass right now that all they would tell me was "some time this year "Just curious...
How many pieces of 300 WSM brass will they make/sell the first run?
250,000...500,000?
I do not know honestly. I have a line to get my hands on 300 pieces, so I'm not too concerned. Those will burn a barrel pretty easily I'd think.Just curious...
