I am just wondering what manual to use as a starting point??
I have been having problems working up a load for my 300wby 165gr accumarks. The best Ive been able to get is a baseball sized group with the odd flyer (usually on a cold barrel clean or fouled) I have used all the powders listed in the manual im using. starting at the books min (witch is around the 78-84gr range) and have also played with seating depths....... No luck!! I figured my gun doesnt like the accubonds
Anyways I was just looking at the reloading info on Noslers ballistics room and the three powders listed have a starting grain at 75gr and max at 79gr!!!!! way below the so called min loads in my other manual..... So have I been shooting hot loads?? is my manual setting me up for disaster?? I have a chrony but havnt thought about pulling it out yet because my bullets were all over the map. (and yes i know i should have been checking )
Well ive loaded up some more accubonds but now at the lower grain load thats on noslers site. hopefully that will solve my problem.
thanks
