Good point, the #1 also come in 300wm and I just saw one in 300 PRC. It is doing what it was designed to do. If I want 3150 I should add a 300 WM to the stable.
I had a little time this morning to run out to the range just to confirm my zero on the 300 HH Number1. I also wanted to test a load I had found several pages back in my log book. The note said “ wow, great load but a little slow”
69.0 grains N570, 180TTSX; loaded .09 off the lands. I expected...
Yes they are serious business. I still have to monitor all my organ functions with blood tests every year. Liver and kidney are still off a little bit but my new docs are not worried about the numbers as long as they don’t change. Also go to Boise for a high resolution ultrasound so the docs can...
I've been able to increase charges in all my #1s except this one. I've hit 3150 but getting over about 69.5 the action gets pretty tight.
I use257 AI IN My Roberts and with the 7x57 I get 2900 with a 150. This one doesn't like to go over 3k.
Thanks for running the numbers👍
Wondering if I could get a quick load run based on my DOPE.

Thanks in advance.
I loved carrying my 45/70 whilst guiding in Alaska. I do think I ruined a few of my clients who begged to shoot it. I had her loaded with 400 gr. Barnes Busters as hot as I could go, essentially a 458, Most who tried those top end loads only did so once.
Loaded to more traditional levels the...
I also owned a Christensen, two of them actually. My 1968 Ruger mdl 77 and my #1s out shot both of the Christensen.
I would want to know how much your brass may be expanding, Haven’t had my first cup of coffee yet so I can’t come up with the numbers, but the shoulders of my 300 HH grow...
It seems every year, sometime between mid September and mid October, we get the first big Pacific Storm rolling in. Oregon goes from dry as a popcorn fart to rainforest wet over night.
For us on the dry side of the cascades, geographically identified as high desert, we get rain as well and snow...
The 300s are great cartridges, I’ve owned several and currently have a 300HH I shoot extensively. That being said. I’m old enough to remember when guys were buying the various 300mags because they shot flatter than the 30 06 not because extra horse power was needed for deer and elk. That was...
Gotta tell ya boys, the 416 bee makes me shudder and say bad words when I shoot one. The 416 Rigby is tolerable but that bee just gets me thinking about ducking when I pull the trigger. Way worse than my 577 ever was.
