Re: Sendero SF II 300 WM Range Report.
For my .308 the Win brass is perfect. I'm at 6 reloads and no signs of break down at all. I will see what happens to the 300 WM brass. Hey jrob300 i see you have quite some experience with the 300 WM (I like seeing people with knowledge
) My question is neck sizing will the standard RCBS work fine? I have seen a lot of posts here and there about the lee stuff what is your opinion on this subject ? thanks ahead for info and your time

This will depend on your chamber and load. I neck sized only with my OEM chamber for a very long time and had no issues with feeding, but I did have some runout problems. I went to the Lee neck sizer and a Redding comp. seater and the runout went away. I'm not sure which was causing it the seater or the sizer, but this combo is working very well now. With a min. SAAMI chamber I have to run the brass through a body die every time. If I had to do it again, I would have bought the Redding S Type FL die.
If the RCBS stuff is working for you, I see no reason to change. Almost every time I change something about my setup, there is some level of drama involved and I've learned not to fix problems that aren't there.

Re: Sendero SF II 300 WM Range Report.
Well I loaded some 155 SMK (not the Palma stuff) They shot ok for what they are. I sized the brass with a RCBS FL die and every single load chambered just perfect. I guess for around 30 bucks I will try the RCBS neck die and see what happens. The other thing I was looking at was the RCBS match something seating die (cant remember the exact name), or maybe the redding might be better.
The load today got me to almost 3200 with a 155 and not one bit of pressure sign I could of probably went up with a little more powder with no issues at all.
Thanks for your time John

Re: Sendero SF II 300 WM Range Report.
Man I remember this thread
anyway I now have a really good load for the 220 SMK. I can get them to come out at about 2830-40 FPS with 76gr of H1000 and very good pressure signs (as in very little pressure). My accuracy is in the .5 MOA pretty consistent with no issues.

The brake is a Badger Ordnance FTE brake. As for a suppressor here in Kommifornia its really hard to impossible to get a suppressor. Would be nice though
