It's a very fun cartridge. Don't leave any .300BO ammo close to a 5.56/.223 rifle if other shooters are present. I like the 110gr V-Max and Speer 150gr fn for hunting and pull down 147gr fmj for practice. Mine has a 1-7" twist and I haven't found an accurate cast load- but I only shoot supersonic loads.

The Lee C312-155-2R works well for me at 1,733 fps average. I know powder coating is all the rage, but I use conventional lube.

Millions and millions of American shooters and sportsmen got up, went to work, contributed to society in useful and meaningful ways all over the nation and shot no one today! How do they controll themselves?? Experts Baffled....
I LIKE IKE
I use a 145gr rnfp @ 2k fps, works excellent. Got a GC version too.
Whatever!
I use 230g plain base. shake and bake powder coated, sized to groove diameter using case lube, with 9.5 to 11g H-110 at around 1,000 fps. Holds to 1/2 inch at 50 yards with a can. It does not anchor a big hog with one shot. So be careful.
