   I’ve tried both LR & LRM in the 300wsm, no change in POI, insignificant change in velocity Have read significant changes begins when powder load is over 70 grains

   I was using standard large rifle in mine with Hodgdon Superperformance powder and 178 either eldm or x they both shoot well in the 3 that I load for. Sent from my CPH2531 using Tapatalk

   I’ve always used lrm but a mate did a lot of testing in his 7saum with different primers and found lr was best. I’m happy with mine so won’t muck around with it but if I was starting to work up a...

   I'd go 178s to claw back a bit of velocity, 178s or 200s will both slay out to further than your likely to shoot. I prefer the m's and as long as you're not doing warp 9 at 50 yards you're good to...

   Shot a pair of reds with the 178 eldx from my wsm. 2900 mv. About 100m and 200m. 200m in the crease blew chunks of lung out the far side and it ran about 40m. The one at 100m was a hilar shot causing...

    Um, this could be a bit like 'what's the best caliber for shooting deer?' If you can, try and get a 4 stroke, you will appreciate the fuel economy over a 2 stroke. Direct injection 2 strokes are...

    tikka6.5 liked post by 6.5 CRD On thread : 6.5 staball vs 2209

    6.5 Staball will give more speed but at the sacrifice of temp sensitivity. If you have a good load sorted already with 2209, i would stick with that. If you look hard enough, you will find some. Bit...

    Man, your probably stressing over nothing. Just do some ladder testing to make sure it's safe and put a new load together. They designed it to be less temp sensitive than normal ball powders. And...

    You should be able to use StaBall to drive a 130-143gr bullet to at least the same velocity as you get with 2209. So yes it's a viable backup option in that sense. It might not be 42gr that does...
