Had a great day today! Took out the 300 WBY to verify the load that shot well last time with the 180 Accubonds. This beauty did not let me down at all.
82 gr 7828 180 ab 215m 3265 fps average and shot this!

Those are very respectable groups, Fotis. Looks as if things continue apace. The 300 is assuredly dialed in.

Great day Fotis! Very nice!

Your 200 grain load is the same I use with the 225 PT.. Just goes to show how different lot #'s of powder can vary a bit.. I have a bunch of the 200 grain Hornady's as well. Might have to give them a whirl over the same load.. 2600 with that 200 would hunt well!

Your 300 Wby looks great man. Just a great overall load.. What COAL did you load the 180 AB at?
 
COAL 3.560"

Scott I had no reason whatsoever t pick up that 300 Bee but I fell in love with the wood!

After is has proven itself over and over at the range, I would not trade it or sell it. That load is poison man! And flat as Kansas!
 
Fotis that Bee is very nice. Is it glass bedded or anything, or just factory as is? What scope did you put on it?

It's tempting Fotis. I'm having good luck with the 200 PTs right now but I just might try your AB load. At least to see what it does from my sons rifle. Seems to have settled down with the pressure point.

It is a beautiful rifle. Deserves to hunt. Gotta love that big 300.
 
Fotis,
That 300 Bee !!!!! That's what I'm talking about !!! That baby is smoking hot buddy. 8) Great load you got there and the wood on it is amazing.

Excellent! That 300 Bee sure is a looker and a shooter. The 358 is not far behind. Good work Fotis.
 
ummmm Very nice Fotis. The 180gr seems to be the perfic weight bullet for the 300 Bee they shoot well in mine also.

Bedded from the factory.

I have the SWFA Super sniper 3x9 on it. Exquisite scope. I have a few of them.








 
Indeed, the wood certainly has some character. Handsome stock that anyone would be proud to own.
 
Beaut rifles and great shooting Fotis. Drool worthy wood there.

That 300 load is awesome. Frightening power and accuracy to harness it.
 
Nicely done Fotis! Man, that 300 Bee looks great and is going to sting hard!
Good show buddy.

Fotis,
Those are some rifles! True to my nature, while everyone else is drooling over the rifles, I found myself envying the photography and especially the group measuring and display system you used. That's what I want! :) Have you told us before how you're getting that done? If so, I missed it.

Thanks!
