[QUOTE="el matador, post: 1265830, member: 12193"] Nosler brass (made by Norma) does have a reputation for being fairly soft and lower in capacity than other brands. I've used their WSM brass and found that to be true. However, I've used a lot of their 300 win mag brass and its a different story. Remington 300 WM brass weighs around 242 grains and the Norma comes in at 221. Almost 10% lighter. It's good stuff. H1000 has treated me really well in the 300 win mag but I'm shooting mostly 208 grain Amax bullets. The SAAMI length is 3.340" which is fairly short for a lot of rifles. I load most of my stuff around 3.600" and it works great for me. I think H1000 would be a good powder to try in your rifle with any bullet 180 grains and up. For 168s I'd go with H4831SC. RL22 has a reputation for being very accurate but it's temp sensitive. That's not a big deal if you take it into account and adjust for it. [/QUOTE]
