300 wm load development.

[Kbeaton]

Yeah with 223 it was never a big deal and I just shoot because I love it. However the cost to load 70 plus grains of powder and .308 bullets are drastically higher than 223 so I want to be more efficient with the load development than with 223. 300 wm is not a gun I would take out and just shoot for fun all day as that could cost me $100 in a day if I shoot it as much as a 223. Where a 223 is only $20 or so each time out on average.

Yeah the 30 cal guns are a bit more pricy to feed that’s for sure. I’ve found though that if I just pony up to find the best load from the start I’m not left wondering if I could do better. It saves me money in the end because I’m not chasing something better. I have an expectation of accuracy in every gun I own. If I hit it with the first load, bam done. To help you get there faster my WM loves the heavy stuff(200gr) and H1000

Sweet! Thank you for the suggestion. I have H1000 and will try that next as varget is my go to first powder. My experience is varget works well on heavy or light but not the middle??? I am shooting 110 lol I like to shoot fast I guess. They go right through steel at 100 yards and I think they should take any game down within 250 yards. Any help you can offer in loading 300 Winnie would be great I am very open to it. I have read a lot of forms. Sounds like neck sizing as much as you can is the best way to go? I hear you only get 6-8 loads per case which sucks...
