Hello guys and gals.
I am not a realoder because living in a condo and I was wondering acoording to your long range and precision experience what is the most efficient ammo for target shooting in .300 WSM ?
Thanks.
 
The only thing you might have to worry about with a Condo is burning down the entire building. Its unlikely to happen, but there is always someone that finds away to screw it up for the people that fly straight. I have not fired 300, so I can't give an honest opinion. Search youtube, our buds down south have lots of insight into this.
 
Actually I already searched on youtube or other US forum but nothing really satisfactory and about realoding at home Madam said NO WAY !!!
 
Your BBQ tank and the cleaners under your kitchen sink are more dangerous than reloading in your condo. Not too many long range shooters are using store bought ammo for competition.
 
I asked again the question to about the opportunity to reload at home and because I still want to have ### sometime I just had to give up immediately (Reloading of course) !
 
feeding a rifle, is like living with a woman
you have to give her whatever she likes
so there is no real secret for factory amo, you will have to try some until you find one that your rifle likes
and I have seen the cheapest ones to be the most accurate in some rifles
 
Your more likely to have a fire because of unattended candles than you are with reloading supplies.

Try to find a load with a polymer tipped boat tail bullet, like a Nosler Ballistic Tip or Accubond, or Hornady SST. These will likely give you the best results.
 
You can buy a hand press and keep everything but your scale in a box in the back of the closet. Powder and primers need special attention but again it's all in securing it and having it properly marked. If your powder goes up it's safe to say you have some bigger problems, like the condo is already going up in flames.

Your not getting the responce your looking for because there is no answer to that question other than buy them ALL and IF your lucky your rifle will like one. Here's where it could get irritating. Your rifles pet store bought load could change over a year or so, or even the lot.

You want best accuracy, figure out a way to keep your rifle and your woman happy. If she'll listen to reason you'll be able to convince her.

Just to say it again. your gear doesn't need to be the best or take up space. The only things that NEED to be good are your seating die and your scale (my opinion for what it's worth).

FYI you can load at the range. I've never seen it done but apperently benchrest shooters do it all the time.

There is a lot of things i will talk to the wife about, good advice is never a bad thing.

LOL but the day I ask permission like I used to ask my Mommy.... Not happening :)

It helps when the wife gets the price difference between factory ammo and roll your own.

Burning your house down reloading ????? ... Whatever

Day my Gf told me what i can and cannot do within the law at my house... is the day she finds a new place to live. That rule is not one sided.


Anyway , 300wsm is my favorite all time cartridge. I have literally had 5 models of rifles chambered in that cartridge.
I lik 165 accubonds with around.. I think its about 63 grains of H380. The most precise load that is on the side of the can of powder is the one that works for me. WLR primers and about 5 thou off the Lands.

That is a hunting load. Most accurate was berger boat tails with around the same powder charge. It was .5 MOA at 300 yards. The accubond load is 3/4 MOA too 1 MOA .... those loads are for a REM 700
