[QUOTE="FEENIX, post: 1541729, member: 14204"] Sorry for not responding sooner. Looks like Capt RB got you started. Berger 215 IMHO is a much better choice. Unfortunately, I do not have my Berger loading manual with me to make any references, left it at work. I do not have a current 215 load for my .300 WM but have one for my .300 WSM for a relative comparison. I am propelling the 215 at 2780 out of a 24" barrel with RL-17. Others are saying that RL-26 will give a few extra velocity but I have not tried them yet. As Capt RB noted, seating depth can be tricky/mystery in finding the sweet spot and each rifle and load combination is different. Because it is a hunting rifle, I started with .010-.020" off the land, I ended up at .160" off the lands for the best compromise of velocity and accuracy. [/QUOTE]
