[QUOTE="82ndreddevil, post: 633185, member: 36912"] Hey guys, hope all is well. Well I have 300 WM in a 700 Sendero with a Leupold 4.5-14 Mark 4. I am not a well experienced handloader so I am trying to find some decsent factory ammo that shoots as well and is suitible for elk hunting. First I tried the Hornady SST 180 gr Super performance with no consistentcy. So I tried the Federal 180 gr Fusions for fun. Consistantly shot an MOA. I had my stock bedded, and a match crown cut and thought I would give a different Hornady round a try. I tried the 150 SST Custom and brought some more Fusions just for fun. The Hornady's again had a lot of flyers and inconsistantcies. I got a little frustrated and tried out the Fusions again. Did not notice any improvement from the stock bedding or the new crown but I still shot an MOA with no flyers.
