[QUOTE="JimFromTN, post: 1034303, member: 5778"] I have some 150's loaded up at 2800 fps for less recoil but my groupings are about an inch which is good enough to hunt with and I have taken several animals with it, but I want better. My best groupings (1/4 to 1/2 inch) was with cheap 180gr Estate Cartidge Company rounds. I can't find them anymore. I had done some reading on one of these custom rifle sites that the rate of twist determines the best bullet weight for your cartidge. I have a standard rem 700 300 win mag, not the police version which has a different rate of twist for heavier bullets, and it seems that it should be somewhere in the 150gr to 180gr range. [/QUOTE]
