I have more than enough to last the rest of my life which the doctors say is 3-5 years. I do not plan to buy any more components and have had to cut dow/out my shooting. My hunting will be less also. I do have two hunts booked this year. One includes my daughter and son-in-law. When the weather...
I want to test some bullets using 1 gallon water jugs. I built a wood semi-box that will hold 7 jugs in a row. It has a 2X6 or 8 bottom and 2x6or 8 sides with 2 layers of 2" boards on the end. I would like to know if anyone has done something like this and if it worked out. So they would be one...
Barnes TTSX OR LRX, Swift A-Frame, I used 225gr Swift A-Frames in my 338win mag for Eland (a big animal) several Kudu and blue and black Wildebeest. I understand it is a 338 and you have a 300 but I also use them in my other rifles with excellent results. You will also. One tip seat them DEEP...

This is the deer my daughter shot, It measured 241 and 7/8". She shot it with a tang safety Ruger M77 in 257R using a 120gr Swift A-Frame(sorry Nosler). She is having it mounted with a shoulder mount.
You got your moneys worth out of the. Toss all of them and get new brass to work with. It is not worth the chance of damage to your firearm or yourself. My 2 cents worth .
sorry but my load is a 225gr Swift A-frame pushed by 71grs of IMR4350 and a Fed 215 primer. I> have taken quite a number of animals in Africa and the USA with it.
When did Nosler make a 130gr PAR 6.5mm bullet? I have 125gr PAR that I have used in my 264win mag and as I remember in my 6.5X55. I do not remember a 130gr PAR bullet.
That Leupold 3.5X10 scope will do just fine for you. That is what I use on most of my hunting rifles and they have duplex reticles. The longest range I have taken game is 500 yards except one pronghorn at 600+---but that was luck mostly and it was very windy.
I have 4.5X14X40 duplex reticle...
