[QUOTE="AZShooter, post: 1284234, member: 5219"] A friend owns a 300 WSM, an older Browning A-bolt with the Boss. He asked me to make him a LR load. I had some 230 Berger target hybrids and decided to give them a try. The longest I can seat a bullet is 2.8". I worked up a load with RL-17. Got great accuracy and velocity from his 22" barrel. Quite amazing actually, 2735 fps! Load for THIS rifle is 61 gr of RL-17, Win brass, Fed 210 primers. Work up carefully. I must admit the 215 would be a better bullet for this cartridge. I just wanted you to know what you could expect with the 230. [/QUOTE]
