Why not a 300 wby?

[QUOTE="John@redmt, post: 1593551, member: 109410"] I just received a custom Mountain Rifles Inc. chambered in 300 wby from a friend's estate. It's very light guessing at 6 lbs.including the scope. I'm looking for a "light" load for it so that I can learn the gun and still have a shoulder! It came with 100 rounds of unknown custom ammo. I unloaded some and it has 83 gr. compressed load with an extruded powder in RP brass and a Swift 180gr. Scirocco bullet. I'm not going to try them! It seems that hand loads for the wby are not that plentiful compared to others. I'm considering dropping the 83 gr. load to 73 or so and giving them a try. [/QUOTE]
