300 win mag reloading

Biggerhammer,

Curious on where you got the Sendero in the pic?   I had one just like it that I bought in 1998 (Junior in High School) that was set up EXACTLY the same way.  I sold it to a guy in spokane when I was a freshman in college.

Just curious if it could be the same rifle?   It drove tacks and accounted for 100 or so 'yotes while I had it.   Shot bugholes with 165 BTs and H4831.

I picked it up in Wenatchee, no box but super clean. A local shop took it in on trade and they called me and said i should come look at it. I took one look at the bore and had to have it( Low miles) It is one of the original from back then. I purchased one new the year they came out and have had four since. All have been tack drivers and the barrels have been excellent when it comes to the super high round counts.

I was just going to post a thread asking for some chrono readings for the 300, as I haven't chronoed any of my 300 rounds and was curious what guys were getting compared to the manual data. i know its different for every rifle and such, but am still curious what some of the readings are you've got. I bet you have some Biggerhammer. I am most curious about the 200 accubond. Are you getting much over 2900?

Thanks!

I run my 165 Accubond load right at 3300fps, and with that speed and bullet I have felt no need to go to a heavier bullet for anything inside of 600 on Deer, Elk or Beer. If I feel I may be shooting further, I'm running a 260gr Accubond with a RUM case pushing it.
