[QUOTE="ohiohunter, post: 1330370, member: 55230"] I was just doing some shooting w/ the savage 300wm weather warrior. The sorta good news is the guy will [most likely] only be shooting factory ammo, the bad news is he is pretty much limited to sammi oal b/c of the magazine. After about 50rds and some jb's I think we got the bore pretty smoothed out and I put 4 hornady precision 200gr eld-x into one 1/4" hole at 100 and had great potential at 200yds but ran out of ammo. Whats unreal to me is half of that bullet extends below the neck shoulder junction. Anyways this guy w/ next to no experience shooting had no problems ringing the 600yd gong w/ his bdc. Oh and he is shooting about 200fps (based on drops) faster than the advertised 2850fps on the box. I loaded up some 185 vld's just to see if they'd group, not a chance, had to jump them way too far. A 168gr Hybrid might do well, just don't have any on hand. [/QUOTE]
