165gr accubond loads for 300 rum

[Horseheaven Hunter]

I got stuck buying 165gr accubonds this weekend. I wanted to use 180gr but sportsmans warehouse was out. I am using rl 25, federal 215 primers and rem brass. I loaded 98grs of powder and they grouped pretty well. I'm just starting to reload so any advice or other load combinations would be great.

You might be better off with RL22 fro the 165gr weight.

H1000 is hard to beat as well. Happen to know your velocity?? Seriously, 200's are the way to go in a 300 RUM. Try a box of them with Retumbo, H1000, or RL-25. Usually .5" groups and 3200fps with a .588 BC.

I agree with remingtonman_25_06, the 200 gr AB will cover all big game hunting both near and far. It would be your best bullet choice for the 300 RUM.
