Bullet for 1k+ for 300WM

[Kill N Grill]

I have been shooting the Sierra 180 to 600. I may have found a place that I can shoot to 1200. Would it be better to go with the 200 SMK or the 210? I have a 24 inch 10 twist barrel. Powder recomendations are welcome. I have been using IMR 4831.

When I was shooting the 1000 in PA. I used a 30-338 and I found with that rifle the sierra 190's worked great for me.I used H 4831 and 7828 tried the H 1000 but not good enough..But that was long ago and I am sure there are better powders..I always like to have the case as full as possible....I miss those days....Good luck in your quest....John

I have used RL22 with great success, don't forget when you start using loads that use more than 70gr per load, you can't finish that box of 100 bullets with one pound of powder, for those that are challenged at math one pound of powder is 7000gr divided by 70gr per load = 100 loads.

I never had that problem--just dump in more powder and keep loading...No math involved...
