[QUOTE="slikmrc, post: 3051620, member: 116436"] I'm using H1000 with 200 grain AB currently. In Norma and Wby brass getting 3000 FPS with good case life. My current 300 Wby is a 26" Winchester model 70 with 26" barrel. H1000 has worked great in this rifle, RL 23 is the next best but has been impossible to find. I picked up a pound of StaBall HD and tried it in a 7 RM with good results. In the process of loading up some 210 ABLR with in the Wby. If you can find H1000 it is well worth trying, it is easy to work with and SD's in the single digits are kind of the norm with it. H4831 was my go to powder for years with 180 bullets but pressures would spike with heavier bullets. MRP, IMR 7828 and RL 22 had better results. IMO H1000 is the best powder for The Wby. Hoping the HD works out, would be nice to have an alternative powder that's made in the USA and maybe can be found a couple times a year. [/QUOTE]
