300 WM Bullet Recommendations?

[Brydawg512]

As stated, looking for bullet recommendations for my 300 WM. I'm just about to start into my reloading journey, and need to buy some bullets to load. I'm looking for a bullet with good performance on game (black bear, muley and elk) out to 600 yards and shooting steel as far as I can achieve.

Also what bullet weight would you all recommend? Heavier than the 180s?

do you know the twist of the barrel

 

[JoeMan04]

Depending on twist and purpose, I use HDY 212 ELD-X or Barnes 180 TSX over H1000 or RL22, depending on availability.

If you got atleast a 10 twist and freebore, Berger 215

What is performance on game like with the Berger under 100 yards? I have shot opportunities like this often as well.

For game hunting 600 and under I would look no further than the 200 accubond

 

[L.Sherm]

If shot game with Bergers from 75 yards to along way out there, I've never had a failure.

Like previously stated:
215 Berger, H1000, and a 10 or faster twist - kill anything.
Alternatively 181 hammer plus rl23.

I am working on loads with a 300 weatherby using Barnes 168gr TTSX. So far they are promising. Since 600yrds is the goal, the BC won't play as much of a role.

 

[Highvoltage]

I really like the 165 accubond I shoot it with h4350. The ballistic tips shoot exactly the same so I practice with those the are more economical. They run close to or at 3200' sec. best wishes

A new bullet of been playing with is the 165 Sierra gamechanger it shows a ton of promise in the accuracy dept and has a higher bc if that's important to you.

I just got my new 300 WM and I am going to try the 225 eldm and the 215 Berger to start with.

berger 215gr Hybrid and H-1000 easy to load
