300 win

[338win]

Bought 2 lbs of h1000. Have a few of 4831 and 4350. Got some Peterson brass. Have 175 and 190? Barnes lrxBT. Thinking about ordering 181/180 Hammers. What’s everyone’s pet loads for ca ridgeline 300 wm?

I have a Weatherby chambered in .300 Win. It likes the 175 grain LRX with 72.5 gr of H4831sc behind it and CCI LRM primers. I don't have my data book nearby for the COAL, but it was a little longer than the Barnes data.

This is why I always cringe when I see a "what's your pet load" Thread. 30grs one way or the other matters.

Please consult a reloading manual or 2.

If I'm stepping on toes, sure @Big Fin will let me know, but on Hammer Bullets webpage there is a link to a forum with tons of load data.

Pulled some data from a pdf file there and the owner emailed me some stuff but it’s all for powder that is impossible to get. I’ll probably dig in their forum some.

166 hammer hunter
H1000
100 yards with right to left crosswind
Hit pressure at 79.5, backed off to 78.0
Seated as far as the mag allows for easy loading.
First 3 shots were 7/8s the 4th opened it to 1-1/8. Might fine tune later but not gonna waste powder and bullets splitting hairs.
