[QUOTE="Ronald W Schaefer, post: 1695125, member: 109378"] A final thought, even though the chart shows you can run higher it seems that load is just too hot and your seating depth may be too deep. IMO, once you're over 2900+ in .300 Win, especially with that 200gr bullet you are there man...I' call it a day velocity wise and start working on precision. For comparison, I have a beautiful old German .300 Wby Mag I run 180 gr Barnes TTSX, 79 gr of old tried and true I-4831(I recently tried all newfangled stuff just for grins and went back to 40 y/o load:-). I clock 3208. That's a 26" pipe, bigger case and lighter bullet. Kudu and Eland harvested this May in S Africa did not notice old school load or lighter bullet:-). [/QUOTE]
