[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 1151008, member: 48043"] I'd only shoot factory ammo in her to get the rifle on paper, and possibly to get a box or two of brass if you don't have any. A bit of trigger time will help when you develop loads too. As to cleaning between boxes, absolutely... The two different loadings may not both use the same powder, and the differing fouling can affect accuracy. As to final loads, I'd go either to Broz's load of a 215 berger and h1000 or something in the 165-220 grain range from hornady with a good dose of rl22, rl26, or rl25 under it... I've dropped many deer with the 165 hdy and rl22, but h1000 sings a pretty song with a heavier pill in the 300win too... [/QUOTE]
