I use the load Kirby recommended as a starting load. 143gr H50BMG, 215 primers and the 300SMK. It runs around 3260fps from a 32" barrel in cold hunting weather. This is with the Jamison brass. It's a very gentle load and shoots very well.

Yep, because that baby could get 3400+ if AJ wanted. That chambering puts new meaning into the words "Long Range"

Are the primers GOLD MATCH?Just trying to stockpile componets before our "leadership" change.I've got powder and bullets .Just verifying primers and brass will be coming from KIRBY.

Are the primers GOLD MATCH?

Nope, Kirby told me to use the standard 215 primers. That is what I use.

Now why did you have to go and post that????

You may wish to remove your stick pin from the find me on the map thing. I just got a new(er) vehicle w/good fuel mileage and speed that will just about hold that rifle if I angle it from right rear to left front.

I'm hooked on Kirby's craftsmanship and one of them there raffles lak u got is next on the list should I be so lucky. For Idaho I have to keep it under 15# all up which I don't believe is a problem.

Look at Sinclair's latest catalog and look at that Widden pointer for the 300 SMK. It may be one of those must have things?????

Better add a pound Roy. This is copied from the 2008 Idaho Rules.

With any firearm that, in combination with a scope, sling
and/or any attachments, weighs more than 16 pounds.

I'm the dumb one again.

Hey, I can handle it if they can.

Guess I'll read a little closer.

Thanks
