Bullet Weight

GENERALLY speaking,in a 300 WM,1:10 twist-are heavier bullets (>190grs) slightly more accurate than lighter weight (<175grs) bullets?? Is RL-22 the prefered powder?? Tnx
 
No way to predict which one will be better, your barrel and then the loads tune will decide which is more accurate.
RL22 is good powder choice for the 300...
Good Luck

The heavier, high BC bullets really help the 300 WM optimize its potential for long range accuracy. The lighter bullet can deliver fine accuracy until the wind is blowing.

We were fans of RL-22 for a while, but the temperature sensitivity can push you out of a sweet spot if your accuracy is at a node that is sensitive to muzzle velocity.

H1000 is our go to powder to find accurate loads quickly in the .300 WM that will still hit to the same point of impact and deliver accuracy throughout the change of seasons.
