    My best reloads ever Savage Model 11 .300 WSM


    I had my best day ever yesterday. Probably ho-hum to some of you but I left the range with a warm fuzzy feeling.


    Looking at loading something up for the deer season and I remembered a comment I received on another forum last year that I should use the 180 gr Nosler in the .300 WSM and the 180 gr Sierra Game King in the .30-06. I had them reversed.


    So I looked up Nosler (nice of them to have their data online) and saw that in there testing with the 180 gr Accubond in the .300 WSM that Hybrid 100V was the most accurate powder. I just happen to have a good stock of that powder.


    I loaded up the 180 gr Accubond in WInchester cases on top of 62.5 gr of H100V capped with a WInchester WLRM primer.


    After I finished working the ranges at Oakdale Gun Club yesterday I took my Savage 11 in .300 WSM out to the 50 yard range.


    I shot a few to zero and then here is the last target at the 50. That is a 3 shot group.




    I think I can tighten up that group at 100 yards. Long day and I was getting tired.


    I gave the scope turret one click to the left and headed to the 100 yard range. I only shot 3 rounds and I thought they were good so I packed up and went home before I did something to ruin a good thing.


    3 round burst at 100 yard range.

    Only on paper. Saw deer but no ethical shots presented.

    Trying to plan an elk hunt for 2020. I will have some chances to try them out on soft targets yet.
