Ok I have tried several bullets of different weights and powder and so far H1000 with a 190 smk works well (needs fine tuning ). Runnin 79.0-79.2 gr H100 , FED215 MP seated at 3.440-3.490 . I also tried the 240 SMK amd it worked better than expected . Runnin 65.5 gr H4831SC , FED 215 MP seated at 3.500 . I am going to try the H4831SC with the 208 A-MAX , 200SMK and 220SMK . I finally have a primer pocket uniforming tool and flash hole deburer comming . The groups with the two already tested were just over an inch at 200 yds (trigger pull ) . I most deffinately need a new trigger ! The stock one blows ! Pull is inconsistant ! Any one else out there with loads for the 300WM feel free to comment .

Go here tons of great data. I have a 5R in 300wm but I have not used anything over 180 and actually prefer the 168gr at a tad over 3200 sub moa out past 600, and right 235 inches of drop to 1K I didn't see much need in 200+ gr for my purpose. I am sure many will disagree with me on that but its my preference.

Re: 5R 300 win mag loads ?
I've had great luck with 75 grains of RL22 under a 180 grain Nosler Ballistic Tip, lit by a Remington 9 1/2M primer.
I haven't shot it past 300 yards yet, but it seems to hold together nicely at that range with no obvious vertical stringing. Groups have run around .75 MOA at 100, 200, and 300, and that's as good as I can shoot with this rifle.
YMMV...

1" @ 200 yards is about what my sendero does with 69.5 4350 + 190SMK or Nosler. If you can do that every time with it then I would say you are gtg.
