IMR 4350 (Gives me three/4" groups with both 165's and 150gr. bullets) and R17(not sure about this 1 yet, but I like the velocity). I personally oasis't tried IMR 4831, but I hear a lot of talk for this powder in the 300wsm, especially in 165+grain bullets.

imr 4831 my A bolt will shoot 180 ptn , 180 accubond , and 180 ballistic tips into same group at 100 yards with 67.five imr 4831 , wlrm primer . become slightly more velocity with RL19 and the ptns but for all around its just so easy to use same load and drop in whatever buller i desire to apply just variable is just slightly different coal . also shoots well with 150 ptns and 150 accubonds but not equally well as with 180s .

What is your #i go to powder for 300 WSM???

thanks

..............There are several powders that I have used which work well in my 300 WSM in bullet weights from the 165 grainers upward to and including the 200 grainers. Using these following powders in my rifle, there are certain charge weights which are more authentic than others, but for overall accuracy these are my go to powders.

RL17........ gives the all-time velocities
N165........ offers some of the best accuracy
H-4350...... aforementioned as N165

With 150-155 grain bullets;

IMR 4007SSC
Varget

You lot`re just going to have to experiment to observe out which powder or powders works all-time in your burglarize.

Information technology was imr-4350,now RL-17.I don't have my notes handy now,but it works real well with 125-190gr bullets.

ADI2213 (H4831) 71gr with the 180BT and WLR primers (3060fps) It works existent well simply is a hot load so if y'all try that piece of work up to it

IMR 4831 works all-time in my 300 wsm, practiced velocity and accuracy with 168 and 200 gr bullets, yet information technology is very temperature sensetive.

IMR 4350 gave skilful velocity and accurateness for me. RL17 gave me some impressive velocites but I couldn't notice a good accurate load.

If I were to start out again in a new rifle, I would at least try rl 17 commencement, then continue to one of the 4350's

If I were to start out once more in a new rifle, I would at least attempt rl 17 first, then go on to i of the 4350'southward

This is what I would do also.
H4350 is still tough to find but the local store has 5lb kegs of '17 on the shelf and so I switched over and stocked up bigtime.

I've found R17 and H4350 to be very close just another 50fps(or more) is very possible with '17. Accurateness is pretty much the same in my rifles.

R17 is a very practiced powder.
