I just purchased a new toy. It's a Remington 700 long range 300 win mag. 26" barrel 1-10 twist with an ajustable Xmark trigger and a bell and carlson stock. Unfortunately I have run into a big problem with the rifle and have to send it back to remington for repair.
So while I'm waiting on it to be repaired I was hoping I could find pros and cons between the 215 and 190 gr bergers. I have a kodiak bear hunt coming up in 2019 and I want this rifle spot on.
My max oal is 3.6" in this rifle. And while breaking in the rifle barrel I was using hornady precision hunter 200 hr ammo with good results. Then started loading a ladder from 73 to 75 grs in .5 gr increments with the 215s. But before I could finish the accuracy was poor and I ran in to the problem on the rifle.
Any input on the bullets and personal load data would be appreciated. Also performance on the game you have taken would be great. Thanks in advance guys.
