I’ve got a Remington 700 sendero 2 in 300wm that’s been in the back of the safe for a few years now. I finally got around to spending some time with it (scope, trigger, brake...) and I’m going to work up some loads for it. I’m planning on shooting 208 eld and 215 bergers. I’ve got 80ish pieces of new ppu brass and 40 pieces of Hornady once fired. As far as brass goes, is the ppu worth messing with? Is it worth the price difference to get ADG/Gunwerks over Winchester, sig, Hornady?

Now for powder, H1000 seems to be the popular choice for 300 but it’s hard to find. What are some other options that are more readily available?
 
As far as brass go with Norma or Nosler or Peterson brass. Powder I would look get a few powders for the 300 mag. No recommendations for that.
 
7828 is good if you’re not concerned about temp sensitivity. I like the Hornsby brass but I know a guy who says he gets 15ish firings out of the gunwerks brass. Seems worth it to me for that.

I shoot 72 grains of R22 with 208’s and it is a laser beam. Same rifle too
 
Ive been shooting the 210 Berger's for a while now. I use 77.6 grains of h1000. I've used other powders like h4831sc.. but h1000 works fine for me.
