Handloads.Com ForumLong Guns300 Wby Data needed
I am trying to see if anyone has had good success finding a very accurate load for 300 weatherby mag using 165 grain Hornady BTSP Bullets? I am getting desperate for something to go about 3300-3400FPS in
a 26" barrel.

I have played around with different loads from a hornady load book but still can't find the combination that works. Thanks for the help.

As a gunsmith I have done some load work with this caliber, but I would ask You first what gun (action) your using, what barrel and twist, and what will the load be used for? (Deer, paper, steel, larger game....?)

Howdy Labsr2, In my Weatherby I don't like such a lite bullet but my rifle does well with 165 hornady's and 84 grns of H4831 in a Rem. case and a Federal 215 primer.They go out at 3225fps. I have used a 200grn Speer for years with 78 grns of H4831, Rem case and fed. 215 primer.They shoot at 2957fps. Very accurate and shoots a long ways with stopping power. Each load hits a 100yd. target at 1/2inch groups.
