CHRISTENSEN ARMS 300 WSM

I would stay in the range of 150 to 165 gr bullets most of the 300 WSMs i have loaded for really like these weights, with any gun play with the seating depth a little the accubonds really shot well and so did Barnes TSXs but i like nosler bullets they have never let me down.

Elk Load
150gr Accubonds
Federal 215 match primers
Remington Case
66.5grs of Hodgdon4350 this is a pretty warm load
Velocity is around 3200fps
Extremely Accurate 3 shot groups average less than a .50" @ 100 yds

Deer Load
125gr. Ballistic Tips
Federal 215 match primers
Remington Case
61grs of Hodgdon4895
Velocity is around 3500fps
3 shot groups average .75" @ 100 yds

Elk and Bigger
200 gr. Partition
Federal 215 match primers
Remington Case
66grs. of Hodgdon48321sc
Velocity is around 2800fps
3 shot groups average 1.25" @ 100 yds
 
Granted I'm old and old school but you can't beat the performance of 180gr Nosler partitions on elk. Anything will work on deer and lesser. Likely, you will enjoy the 300WSM. Elk don't like it.
 
I shoot a 300wsm and i have had good luck with the barnes mrx bullet 180 grain very accurate and every thing i have shot with it died instanty.

ok i have a Christensen arms 300 WSM built on a browning A-bolt.
The best bullet period is the winchester supreme fail safe 180 Gr.
to bad they dont make the fail safe anymore with the new acu-bond
but you still can find them. i just baught 4 boxes of them.
the acu-bond just wont cut it! The gun does not like them!

fail safe 100 yards will shoot a half inch group out of mine.
acu-bond 100 yards will shoot a three inch group out of mine.

i shot an elk at 702 yards with mine shooting a 180Gr. fail safe




hey,hey,hey bow hunt everyday!!!
