Has anyone have a review on how their 300 WM is shooting the 180 grain E-Tip?
I have been interested in these bullets but havent heard much about them.
 
I have tried them in a 300wsm. they shot real well in my rifle (Vanguard) right about an inch at 100 yds which is good for me. I used them 3rd season in CO for Elk and deer. Did not find the elk but did find a nice 4x4 muley. Shot was a pass thru with a pencil hole entrance and a golf ball exit hole.The deer dropped in his tracks.I was using a max load of w760 in the 300wsm with the 180's.I did try Rl19 and RL22 but those loads were a little compressed in the wsm case with those long bullets. Going to try RL17 when I can find some.
 
yes i have a 180gr Etip load worked up for my 300 win mag. max load of h1000 is shooting some good 300yd groups. only 1 deer so far, but it seems to do the job.
