As the title says, what are your favorite recipes for the 300gr bullet. Here's my kit:
26" heavy Kreiger 1:10
Lapua brass
300gr SMK's
Retumbo
CCI magnum primers
Because of the cost of doing these tests, I am looking for some insight from fellow shooters to get me started. I am leaning towards starting at 89.3gr because a little Googling shows this as a popular choice. But I am concerned with lower velocities. I know velocity is not the be-all end-all of precision loads. So, upon further research, I have found popular loads at 90.5gr, 91.5gr, and 92.0gr (all Retumbo).
My end goal is a decent load out to a mile and beyond. What say you?

Edit: I'll be doing a soft jam at .005" off the lands.
