I’ve actually been very interested in doing the HCA build route. There’s are also throated to take 215 Berger’s or similar out of 300wsm

If ya want to shoot a 215 berger out of a 300WSM there is

I’d go with Mike at HCA, he’s a great guy and a forum sponsor, have to support our sponsors especially when they put out great products and service.

I mean I definitely would like to shoot past that. But as far as hunting, I’m not sure what kind of effectiveness a .300wsm has out past that.

My 300wsm is pushing the 215’s at 2963ft/s, it has plenty of speed and power out to 1000 and more.

What powder are you running to get 2963?

300 WSM with Unknown Munitions

Hey Roksliders! I just shipped my 300 WSM over to @Unknown Munitions for their full load development service. I'll post on this thread as the process goes along to let you all know how it goes. So far the plan is to use Hornady brass (only option right now) and Berger 215 Hybrids.

I’m running H4831sc & it’s running at 2865 with great accuracy & es of 12. Thinking it may gain a bit of speed as the barrel settles in with more rounds down the tube

I’ve already spoke with him a bit. I’m pretty sure that’s the route I’m going. I’m trying to sell my Kimber currently and am looking for a t3 for HCA to build

How many rounds down your barrel, my velocity had a big increase at around 120-140rds.

Why not just buy the Savage 110 Ultralight in 300 WSM? It is exactly what you are asking for with a good price and you are already accustomed to their actions.

Just under 100

I have contemplated that, that being said my savage doesn’t have accutriger so it’s probably different a bit. Biggest thing is I haven’t really gotten my hands on those new savages, the stocks looked kind of flimsy but it’s bad to say until you actually get them
In your hands. I also don’t know if they will shoot the heavier bullets

For 0 to 700yds deer, elk and black bear I like my 300 wsm with 22" barrel and 165 or 180 Tsx. I have a Borden Alpine Mag but a Remington or Tikka will kill just as dead. Weighs 7.5lbs with swaro Z6 3-18.
