Hello all,
I've spent some time trying to develop a load for my Browning X-Bolt Max Long Range in 300 WM and have yet to achieve satisfactory results (sub-MOA). I found that 200gr Hornady Precision Hunter ammo yielded the best results from factory ammo, so in essence, that is what I am attempting to replicate. Using 200gr ELD-X's seated .030" off lands, Lapua brass, and CCI 250's. I've tried a gambit of charge weights with H4831SC in order to keep using the same powder across my rifles, but I suspect the 300 WM may need a different powder (H1000, Retumbo, etc.) in order to achieve good results.
Looking for recommendations for "recipes" for this gun/caliber. At this point, I am not opposed to trying another bullet or powder in order to get this rifle to shoot properly. Thank you.
