Great shooting, looks like you have something really good to work with. Tell us more about your 300 WSM, I don't recall any factory gun having a 25" barrel. What do you have in stock for the new Alliant and IMR powders, I may need to order some.
 
Great load work and shooting, looks like a great stopping point with that bullet/powder combo.
 
God dang, another use for RL26... I'm not sure what Alliant put in it, but it has been pretty incredible in just about everything I've tried it in. Should've thought of the 300 WSM. It's very speedy in my 7mm WSM...

It does haul ass. I have a rem700 270 wsm and 0.5 gr under max with it and 140 ab I got 3300. Didn't shoot great but that was no playing with seating depth just mag length. I tried it in my 300 ultra with 178 eldx and hot 3440 fps no pressure.

It's my hunting partners Fierce Ti. We assumed it was 24" until we measured it one day. Shoots awesome
 
Nice, I would say your buddy has a couple of great loads and an accurate gun. Need to try RL 23 and 26 soon.........

26 is pretty amazing so far. Haven't cracked my 23 yet but I believe I'm going to give it a shot in the Swede before too long.
