T Found out when the scope was originally mounted it was canted. Reset the scope. Did a ladder with some IMR 8133 103g, 104g, and 105g with Berger 230g Hybrids. Bolt was a little stiff at 105g. 104g shot well, but 103 were a little better. Chono’d the 103g and had SD of 7.3 with ave velocity...

Did you stretch it out past 100 yards? I’m running 30-378 Roy and used 94g of H1000 with 230g Berger Hybrids. Shot great at 100 yards. With 1/4” moa. Just went out to 300 yards and 411 yards and my grouping went to hell. Gonna run IMR 8133 in my next batch.

These are the only loads I have got to send down the range so far. I want to try the new IMR 8133 powder in it. My 300 Weatherby likes IMR 7828.

Come across your post. Can you message me what powder you have found to push the 300gr to 3000fps? What are you running in the 250gr Noslers? Thank you.

Got back out to test some more loads with the 30-378. Tested 6 with 93.5gr of H1000 w/ Berger 230 Hybrids, and 6 with 94gr of H1000 w/ Berger 230gr Hybrids. 93.5gr of H1000 had 1"to 1.5" group with SD of 14 to 8.1 at 100 yards. 94gr of H1000 had a 1/4" to 1/2" group at 100 yards with SD of 10 to...

First 12 rounds. Used Weatherby stamped brass, fed 215 primers, Berger 230gr hybrids, and H1000 powder. COL was 3.79 3.8 would not chamber from the mag. Used 93, 93.5, 94, 94.5gr. 93 and 94.5 were inch grouping at 100 yards. 93.5 and 94 were half dime sized groups at 100. Will chrono these 2...

Finally pulled the trigger on new 30-378 Weatherby. Have a 300 Weatherby Mark V that I've killed a lot of elk with. I've been wanting the 30-378 for some time now. Set up will be 30-378 Accumark, Near Manufacturing rail and scope rings, Swaro x5i 3.5-18x50, and Javelin bipod. Waiting on brass...

Anybody shooting their rifles? I was set on getting a 30-378 Accumark, but ran across this company. Looking at their 338 Edge. Thier prices don't break the bank either which is nice to see.

Thanks Lefty.

Anybody used rl33 in the 30-378 with 230 Berger Hybrids?

I see Berger makes a Tactical and a Target in the Hybrid model. I'm guessing the 230 grain Hybrid that is being talked about for hunting big game is the Target model. Is this correct? Thanks again.

Thanks for all of the replies. Much appreciated.

New to this forum. It has a wealth of knowledge. I appriciate all the shooters out there helping out. Pretty cool forum. Decided on my next gun. Going to get 30-378 Accumark. I'll be putting the x5 Swaro 3.5-18x50 on it. Still not sure on whether to get the illuminated one or not. I'm looking...

I'm new to this forum and have been enjoying all the information on here. I'm looking at getting the x5i Swaro. I do a lot of elk hunting in northwest MT. Shots can be extremely close and out to 1000 yards or so. Killed a bull couple years ago at 20ft. I'm trying to decide on the magnification...

New to this forum, and have been enjoying the wealth of knowledge on here. Looking to set up a 30-378 Weatherby with the new x5i 3.5-18x50 Swaro scope. I've read a few articles and have talked to couple people who really like the scope. I was wondering if anybody else has any input they can put...
