Hello fellow shooters, just got the new toy heavy barrel Tikka 300Win Mag, and i need a good load for it, gun is to be used for long range target shooting, thanks, Traper.:)
 
I load 55gr of IMR4350 with a 110gr SP. Group inside a looney at 100yds. and very little recoil.
This load is a bit stronger than a 308Winchester but below a 30-06, and quite a bit lower than a full 300WM load. I can't shoot more than 20 rounds of full load magnums before my shoulder feels like it got kicked by a mule.
 
I really like the 178Amax with lots of(75grs) reloader22 pushing it with 215M Primers in Winchester brass


Jamie
 
200gr Sierra HPBT Match
72.7gr H-4831SC
Lapua Brass
Fed Match Mag Primers

This load turns out .252" 5 shot groups @100 Yds From my custom .300 Win mag
 
FYI, the classic Wimbledon Cup load was something like 68.5 or 69 grains IMR4350 pushing a 190 Sierra.

The current sniper load used by the U.S. military has a 190 Sierra pushed by Reloder 22 (probably around 75 grains).

I'd also expect that Jamie's load is hard to beat.
