Anyone have any experience with this cartridge that they would like to share with ol bubba?
I have spoken to a couple of you already offline and am wondering who else might dabble in this caliber.
thanks for considering!

bubba what do you want to know?I have a 300 wsm in a browning stalker,I haven't hunted with it ,think its more gun than I need for deer around here,but have shot it some off the bench.It is very accurate like the browning 270 wsm I have.I did use the 270 wsm to take deer last year. About everything I have loaded in the 300 has shot very good so far,mostly shoot 150 gr bullets but did shoot a one hole group using the 180 sst one day. When the gun was new below is the first 2 groups I shot in it after zeroing the scope.You are welcome to what little knowledge I have on the 300 wsm.

Yes I reload for the 270wsm also.I have one in a browning and one in a win ss classic.The win has never shot a decent group yet,I just called a gunsmith this morning and I am going to take it to him next week to recrown and see if that helps it. On the other hand the browing shoots any thing I put in it well enough to hunt with,I have so many loads that have shot 1/2 in or less than I have room to post them. I will list some that worked great for me so you may want to try some of them. R-22@68grs,sierra 130 SBT--@100 yds .226 3-shot group IMR 4831@66.5 grs,130 TSX--@100 yds .378 IMR 4831@66.0 grs 130 TSX--@100yds .460 H414@61grs 130 sst--.361 R-19@67grs 110v-max --.165 IMR 4831@62grs-several groups 1 in or less @300 ydsThis is a target bullet I35 gr sierra You can try some of these loads and some of them should work but if they don't I can probably find more that shot good.
