Anyone shooting 165 Accubonds in a .300WSM?

[onlybrowning]

I plan to shoot 165 grain Accubonds in my new .300 WSM. I have H4350, H4831sc and lots of different primers. Anybody shooting these bullets in a .300WSM? Let's hear them.

My buddy uses rl 19 and h4350 in his Tikka with the 165. One gun for everything.

I have a Remington 700 XCR chambered in 300 WSM and have worked up an excellant load for it using the 165 AccuBond. Unfortunately, the State of California won't let me hunt with them anymore, so I had to go to the Barnes TSX.

This load should be considered maximum and you should work up from a few grains below.

Winchester case
Fed 215M primer
67 grains H 4350
165 grain AccuBond
OAL 2.86 "
Velocity 3168 fps
Ave group 3/4 inch for 3 shots

Sure glad I stocked up on all those Accubonds, I am not sure what I can do with them now. (I must have 6 or 7 boxes left)

I worked up a number of loads for others using 165 grain Accubonds. Among those that have shot particular well is one using 64 grains of H380 and WLRM primers. This was a maximum load and should be worked up carefully to ensure there are no pressure issues.

The 165 gr AB is a great choice for your 300 WSM to hunt everything.
Let us know how your load development goes.
