I'm looking for a Quickload request for a 300wsm with 215 Bergers in a 26" barrel with a OAL of 3.175". I'd like the same thing with a 300win mag at a OAL of 3.735. I'm curious how close the two are with the bullets seated at about the same place in the neck to maximize capacity. Thanks in advance.
 
I ran them both at 63k so they would be apples to apples
The QL default on the WSM is 63817 and the Win Mag is 64k so I equalized it.

Code:
Cartridge          : .300 WSM (CIP)
Bullet             : .308, 215, Berger Hybr #30423
Useable Case Capaci: 73.046 grain H2O = 4.743 cm³
Cartridge O.A.L. L6: 3.175 inch = 80.65 mm
Barrel Length      : 26.0 inch = 660.4 mm

Predicted Data for Indicated Charges of the Following Powders.
Matching Maximum Pressure: 63000 psi, or 434 MPa
or a maximum loading ratio or filling of 110 %
These calculations refer to your specified settings in QuickLOAD 'Cartridge Dimensions' window.
C A U T I O N : any load listed can result in a powder charge that falls below minimum suggested
loads or exceeds maximum suggested loads as presented in current handloading manuals. Understand
that all of the listed powders can be unsuitable for the given combination of cartridge, bullet
and gun. Actual load order can vary, depending upon lot-to-lot powder and component variations.
USE ONLY FOR COMPARISON !

160 loads produced a Loading Ratio below user-defined minimum of 85%. These powders have been skipped.

Thank you. I was expecting them to be closer in velocity but based on case capacity those numbers seem closer to reality.
 
Yep. I looked them over after the run and it does seem to make sense, I agree. I originally thought the WSM pushed a little would run right with it but 100 fps or so is logical.
If you need any more just shout.
 
For the most common loads the velocity gap is a lot closer it seems. Most people shoot H-1000 in the 300wm 2950-3000fps with 75-78gr and for top loads in the WSM it seems like 7828 is the ticket at about 10grs less powder. So if you look at those two it is only around 40fps according to QL. The thing that appeals to me is the charge weight difference between the too. That translates into quite a bit less recoil for the WSM. Since I'm looking to build a lighter weight backpack gun that is appealing. With a 10lb rifle that is 28.5lbs of recoil versus 32.4 using QL charge weights with the powders mentioned. That's about 15% more recoil for 40-50fps. Since the 300wsm is taking over 1000yd benchrest for the .30 calibers I might give it a whirl. I already have brass and dies so I'm just a reamer away at this point. It would be fun to chamber a barrel for a 300wm to find top velocity/accuracy and then set it back just enough to punch a 300wsm reamer in it to see what it get's.
 
That makes a lot of sense.
10-15% reduction in recoil is a pretty big deal.
From your research, does the powder reduction translate to barrel life?
 
The 1000yd guys are getting phenomenal barrel life from them. Well over 2000 rounds with some around 2500. The old 308 Baer/300 AI rifles that everyone use to use would only hold around 1000 rounds of accuracy life. The guy I talked to said the brass life is amazing as well with well over 20 reloads on both Winchester and Norma brass. He only runs in the 2800fps range with 210's though so that helps with brass life I'm sure. He has set numerous 1000yd records with one at the PA 1000yd benchrest. It seems like it is a modern version of the old 30-338 Win. mag.
 
Fwiw, I shoot that bullet outta a strait win mag and get excellent accuracy, half MOA at 800? Last time out. I use H1000 and seat them 0.015" off the lands, MV is 3,000 per magneto and 28" Hart.
