[QUOTE="Oldschool280, post: 1616679, member: 94521"] Greetings, if you have happened upon any of my earlier post regarding my 300 WinMag, you may have read that I have found that it shoots 165 and 168 grain bullets well , But is not happy with 180 and 190 grainers( one inch groups at 100 or larger)Is it possible that it may like 210 and heavier bullets as well as the 165/168, or am i most likely stuck with a light bullet 300. , the thing is throated very deep and cant get 180’s anywhere near the lands. The short bullets don’t mind the big jump and come out pretty well(1/2”). Maybe i need to venture out past published max powder charges and get the longer bullets humming faster? I have had no pressure signs whatsoever yet. I would use extreme caution, this rifle is built on a very strong action( pattern 14 ). Thanx again guys for all of your help and input. [/QUOTE]
