    First 300WM loads

    After shooting a box of Winchester Supreme, I'm gonna load up the brass with H1000. Gonna start at 75 and go to 77, in 1/2 gr increments. This is going thru my Savage 110BA. Does 75 sound like a good starting point? And should I try a 77.5? AND, are 1/2 gr increments too big? Thanks.

    300 WM brass?

    New to loading 300WM. Since Lapua brass is not available, what's preferred? I use Lapua only for my 308. Is Winchester near the top of the list?

    Nosler 155 CC load?

    Tried going thru stacks of posts for some advice on Nosler 155 CC. Which powder would be most recommended? IMR 4064 or 8208? Trying to get some loaded up for tomorrow.

    H or IMR 4895?

    Real quick poll: if you were loading 168 SMK FOR A 308 and could use only H4895 or IMR 4895, which one would it be?

    Hard case for 110 BA?

    I have a Pelican 1750 that is about 1 1/2" too short for my Savage 110 BA 300WM. I need about 51" plus, inside. Any advise? I'd like a hard case if it's not crazy expensive.

    Sierra 155 SMK and 8208XBR?

    Wanna try some Sierra 155 SMK AND 8208XBR. Is this a good combination? Or should I use H4895? Going out to 200-300 yds.

    Hornady brass/178 BTHP

    I'm gonna try loading 178 BTHP's in some new Hornady Match brass. I've been using Lapua. Wanna start using some Hornady now, see how it compares. I have IMR4064 and 8208XBR to play with. Would the 4064 push the 178 better than the 8208? I thought somebody somewhere told me the 8208 was better...

    Midway 178 blems

    I've got a few boxes of 178 BTHP blems from Midway. If I'm loading 41.9 of IMR4064 in Lapua brass for 178 AMAX, where should I start to load the 178 blems? Are these supposed to be the same as Hornady 178 BTHP?

    Savage Accutrigger replacement.

    I currently am running a RifleBasix SAV-1 trigger after my AccuTrigger went bad on me. (Liked it) Model 10 FCP .308. Looking for opinions on the SAV-2 vs Timney. Ready, go...

    Hornady 178 BTHP VS 178 Amax

    I hear the 178 BTHP has a better BC than the Amax. Would I load them with the same powder loads? Anybody shoot them comparatively?

    178 gr BTHP BLEMS

    I bought some 178 gr BTHP blems from Midway. How should I load these for my Savage 308? Look at them like the SMK's? Hornady?

    300 WM bullet size?

    Ok, I have learned that 168's are a great common size bullet for .308's. I am getting started on my new 300 WM. Now I have to learn the favored bullet for this gun. Savage 110 BA, bolt gun. Gonna be shooting targets for now, out to 400-600 yds. Kinda in a small time "sniper training". Would I...

    Please help me understand.

    I thought I was on a roll loading my .308, but now my inquisitively detailed cabinet-making side is creeping in. I'm trying to bump the shoulder back .002 on my once fired Lapua brass. My Redding type S neck sizer with .337 does not seem to be doing this. Is this the task of the FL sizer? I...

    Gempro 250 what's going on?

    I'll try to keep this short, but informative. I've used my Gempro 250 for a year with no problems. I've turned it on for at least 24 hrs before using. It usually was spot on after picking up powder cup and replacing it. Well, last time I used it, I left it plugged in. That was about 3 weeks ago...

    Wolf Gold 223

    Is Wolf Gold 223 good stuff for my Windham 223? It shoots 556 also.

    Frustrated!

    I usually load Lapua for my .308 just using my Lee collet die. I'll admit, I like to tweak too much sometimes. Well, I bought a Redding Type S bushing neck sizer(71155). I also have an RCBS neck bushing die set(15506). AND I have another RCBS neck die. I just loaded some Hornady and Fed loads...

    Favored brass for 300 WM?

    About to start loading for a new Win Mag. Can I get a run down on what brass is "best", and what I might buy last? I know Lapua is what I would use in my .308.

    Powder for 300WM?

    Guess what-I have a Savage 110BA coming to papa in 300WM! Been drooling for months. Now it's coming. So, what's a good powder to shoot? IMR7828SC? RL22? It's my understanding that 180 gr bullets are a good one to use in 300 WM? Kinda like 168's are the go-to for .308. I'd sure appreciate some...
