    300 WM hunting loads

    Re: 300 WM hunting loads 210 Berger VLD 69 grains RL-22 .020 off lands 2700 fps Sub MOA Still at 1000 FT/Lbs at 1000 yards. I have seen multiple elk killed with Bergers in both 300 and 7mm an the results are always devestating. This load has very mild recoil in my rifle, and shoots better...

    Rifle Scopes Burris 30mm Signature rings

    Re: Burris 30mm Signature rings I have had these rings on my 300 win mag L/R-Hunting rifle for almost four years now. I have never had a point of impact change through three hard hunting seasons, and lots of range and field shooting. I would not hesitate to use these on your rifle.

    Rifle Scopes Burris scopes

    Re: Burris scopes I sent my burris in for repair when the parallax adjustment knob fell off. Burris said they would just replace the scope, so I traded up for a 6-24 xtr. The glass is clear and fairly bright, but the adjustments are extremely mushy. That being said, I have never had a...

    Loads for 300 WM - Need input guys

    Re: Loads for 300 WM - Need input guys The reloading thread at the top does have a lot of good information, but one thing I noticed was that most of the loads I have found for RL-22 and 210 bergers are at the high end of the scale. After a lot of trial and error with my rifle shooting...

    300 WM handloading concerns

    Re: 300 WM handloading concerns Email Berger for load data for their bullets. The reloading sticky here suggests starting OAL into or very near the lands and start at your lowest charge. This way if you started with the minimum or book OAl and found a charge near max that works well, you...

    Berger 210 300 mag load data?!

    Re: Berger 210 300 mag load data?! I queried Mr. Berger for the same load data. He sent back loads for VIHT N165, RE-22, and IMR 7828. I went with the RE-22. Ol' Walt suggested starting at 67.5 grains of RL-22 and working up to 71.1 grains. I found best accuaracy around 69 grains, but I'm...

    chasing ES Now what?

    Re: chasing ES Now what? I have not shot an "official" OCW test. I'm .020" off the lands. When shooting 69 grains my accuracy was great, minus the ES, recoil was extremely pleasant compared to 71 grains, but again the high ES is not going to cut it. I agree with you that the chrony setup...

    chasing ES Now what?

    Re: chasing ES Now what? I have gone up .5 grain at a time up to 71 with no improvement. I am shooting over the basic shooting chrony. I have often wondered about the accuracy of these. I did just read a "good" chrono will give an accuaracy error of .005 fPS, so a cheap one could be worse...

    chasing ES Now what?

    Re: chasing ES Now what? Sounds like I need to start looking at different powders. I would like Max case fill without the effects of the close to max load of RL22. I would be happy with an ES in the 30's for what I do.

    chasing ES Now what?

    Re: chasing ES Now what? I have not tried different powders for the 210's. I was shooting 4831 with 190's, but that was before I got serious about long range and I was not shooting over a chrono. I have read that people get low ES with RL22, but I am not opposed to a different powder. Would...

    chasing ES Now what?

    I need help deciding what to do next to lower ES. Shooting a .300 Win Mag PSS, winchester brass all prepped minus weighing and neck turning, RL-22, Berger 210's, Federal 215 LRM. Every charge is weighed on calibrated scale. I have worked from 67.5 gr to 71 gr and can't get my ES under the...
