[QUOTE="Muddyboots, post: 1965016, member: 63925"] 180-200 grain. Shooting 180 AB, 190 ABLR and 200 AB. My load data is in basement but will go down later and pull some examples but I am generally in the 63 grain range to get over 3000 with a 180AB. There are a lot of other LRH threads showing same as well. Bad back so getting down into basement is a chore right now. Here is Alliant load data and the 180 AB is quite a bit faster even in 24" barrel. I have 26" barrel so getting even more. I tried RL26 and could not get same velocity that I am with RL16. Like RL26 but also like RL16 a lot more in 300WSM. It may not seem like a huge difference but 5+ grain difference in powder relative to recoil reduction is also a benefit. [TABLE] [TR] [TD]300 Win.
