maximus Report post Posted March 19, 2015 i posted a question about Hornady Amax in a different thread, currently i'm reloading for my 300 win mag with 180 grain sierra gamekings, haven't found a load that i like and was looking to try a heavier bullet. my question is, which of this bullets should i reload? 200 grain gamekings. 208 Amax, 210 Berger VLD hunting. thank you and appreciate all the opinions.

maximus Report post Posted March 19, 2015 i forgot about that one, i was looking at the accubond lr, what do you think? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
firstcoueswas80 Report post Posted March 19, 2015 Id go the standard accubond. I wish they made a standard, 180 .284 accubond. I'd use it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pwrguy Report post Posted March 19, 2015 I posted in your other thread as well, I shoot a 300 win mag and my best group to date has been with the 210 Bergers, however I have excellent results with the .208 Amax and they are a lot more affordable than some of the other choices. So far my rifle really likes the 200 to 210 selection of bullets, of course every rifle is different. Don't get hung up with muzzle velocity, these heavier bullets are awesome out of .30 Cal.

STOMP442 Report post Posted March 19, 2015 Chances are the bullet isn't the problem. Have you tried a different powder or primers? Is the rifle bedded and barrel floated? In my experience if the bullets in the green box (Sierra) don't shoot you got a problem somewhere. If given the choice though I will always choose a Berger over anything else.
