300 Win Mag - Getting started with reloading

[@ronjoseph4131]

I started watching yesterday, but I took a drink every time bushing flashed on the screen. I passed out. Excellent video very informative

[@Wellsey302]

Yes!!! Best $10 I ever paid on KZbin. Basically paid for a JRB movie ticket

I appreciate you for doing this donation over 4 years ago 🙏

[@WestDesertShooter]

A JRB feature film! It’s hard to comprehend just how much knowledge is in this video all available for free. Great stuff man thanks so much!

[@Kriegerpvp]

This is fantastic, I just got myself a Bergara b-14 ridge in 300WM, this is all great stuff! So much useful information for my own journey down the rabbit hole of reloading 300wm. I'm reloading 180gn nosler Accubonds with 79 gr of ADI 2217, which is the ADI equivalent of H1000, after much of your advice and tips, I've successfully not blown my face off. I love your channel! keep the 300WM videos coming!

[@joeykennedy5910]

I have been waiting for these videos forever and I don't even own a 300 win mag yet

[@bmstylee]

It's an fun gun to shoot. It was my first long range gun. I have since bought a 6.5 Creedmoor and 338 Lapua Magnum. I really don't shoot my 300 win mag anymore because the 6.5 is less recoil with similar ballistics on steel targets and the 338 is just a more capable round in general.

[@joeykennedy5910]

Yeah I love my 6.5 creedmoor, but I just built a 6.5 Grendel for my long range shooting to 1000 yards.

[@jaythus3181]

I like my weatherby vanguard in .300 win mag quite a bit, make sure your scope is good quality as well as the scope rings and make sure the mount job is good because if not you'll end up with a canted scope from the recoil lol. I like 180 grain projectiles the best in it but that's me, if you decide to get into it see what works best for your barrel

[@jeffkessel2440]

I found the "bushing" to be fantastically hilarious. Every time it flashed up, I laughed. Thanks for that.

[@jeffkessel2440]

@Joe Chance He spends his money testing things so we don't have to. I appreciate it.

I been reloading for 30 years... and I learned something today.... thank you

[@MrBowNaxe]

Thanks for making this one! I'm in the same boat about not needing a 300 Win Mag but, I won one so here I am. I really enjoyed all your videos so far and I'm sure this one will serve me well.

[@smithjones1906]

Watched this from start-to-finish. One of the most educational channels on KZbin.

[@joshr9689]

I just bought my 300 win mag yesterday then came home and hopped on your channel. I was very dissapointed you hadn't covered it then low and behold this morning this popped up. Love your channel.

[@daleb1225]

An hour and thirty six in your humor got to me, thank you for the dedication and work you put into this along with your humor.

[@OGDrBigB]

As someone who's never even considered Repacking. I was able to follow along and learn something new!

[@IowaBuckSlayer]

That’s a lot of information to take in. I may have to watch this a couple times. Thanks for taking the time to make a video of this magnitude.

[@No1JetDoc]

I've avoided the bushing dies up to this point. Getting bushing die info along with 300 win mag reloading info is a real bonus! Thanks! Excellent as always!

Put me down as being one of the people that like long videos.

[@bowerplace8909]

I've been shooting the 300 win mag 30+ years, been reloading it for 20+ years. Shot most everything from gophers to grizzlies. From 15 yards to an elk at 890 yards. It just works. My reload recipe is what really works in my riflr. Winchester modle 70 classic s/s with a boss.(first one in Canada ) 24 inch barrel, +boss 73 grains 7828 powder Win./ fed brass Win. Mag primer 200 grain seirra game king Average 2960 fps ( 10 shot average ) Full lenth resized and trimmed every time. Some cases reloaded more than 6/7 times. Hunting in the East Kootanys Canada.from the bottom lands to top of the Rockies. It works.

[@e-fishinseasportfishingcha7659]

I am speechless after watching this entire video. This video is 100% quality, pretty sure I'm ADD and I was able to watch every second of this, so congratulations on that LOL. Whatever you do for a living, stop it because this is your calling. If this was on American Idol, you would get the golden buzzer no doubt. I recently purchased a Tikka T3X Super-lite 300 Win Mag and I just love shooting it at the range but purchased it for Elk and Moose hunting and with Hornady Precision 200 grain ELDX ammo I am able to produce sub 1 inch moa @ 100 yards. I am wanting to reload for myself and that is why I ended up here. Thank you much for taking the time and sharing this with us all, I completely enjoyed it.

I have never found the need for commenting on a you tube video, but you are absolutely amazing. This is one of the best, most intelligent, interesting and educating videos I have ever seen. Thanks a lot for the time and effort you have put inn to making this video. Best regards from Norway.

[@yle8708]

I've heard a lot of people saying a lot of different things as far as belted magnums and the bulge around the belt. I'd love to see a long term review of two different lots of brass one using the Larry Willis collet die and the other using standard full length sizing dies and see what the results are. Thanks for all the awesome videos and the info you provide.

[@stevemiller6044]

It would not be long term. After a few firings you cannot chamber belted brass without the Willis collet die.

[@thebigmansoutdoors]

Reloading the 300 win mag is going to be my summer project..

I do not shoot 300 win mag but it is a JRB video so I watched it all. There is something to learn no matter what. As always some good shooting also. PS: I would watch a JRB video on how to make a soup sandwich

[@cacinaz8802]

I just plunked down some serious money on a custom 300 win mag for long range hunting and shooting. I am very thankful you produced this for public consumption. I'm also thankful that I went the custom route, since you have demonstrated in this video how to put lipstick on a pig (no offense but that TC chambering is pretty awful). Maybe look into replacing the bottom metal to accept an extended magazine? The groups were clearly better when closer to jam. With the state of the Union hanging, we are all being pushed (not so gently) into reloading, and I have saved this video for future reference. I'll just hope the components become more readily available soon. Great video, thanks.

[@jonathandavenport1172]

I don’t even own a 300WM, but really enjoyed this video. When I saw an hour long video drop last night I got crazy excited lol Might go buy a 300WM barrel for my DTA now :)

I've used your videos as a reference for a while now. Just picked up and RPR in 300 WM and your page was the first place I looked for reloading info. Thank you for this video.

[@rbfreund]

You are quite good. I am a professor and Mechanical Engineer and have been learning gunsmithing and reloading from a very famous Hall-of-Fame shooter and gunsmith. He is vey good on the details but sometimes we can get in too deep and lose sight of the big picture. You do not have that problem. We are, in fact, reloading 300 Win Mag (as well as 6-Dasher and 308 for F/TR) and have run into many of the issues you are discussing. Please keep up the good work. For those of you new to reloading (or new to belted magnums), this is an excellent video and he goes over almost everything you really need to think about.

[@danjohnson1645]

Fantastic video on .300 Win Mag reloading. You covered ever detail really well and provided more information than some others if they did a 10 hour video! Great work! I took the liberty of taking a "screen shot" of some of your information. Glad you did not "blow your face off" in this process but that was really funny! Great work! Thanks much!!

[@philipknudsen8653]

One of the best comments I’ve ever heard, ‘This is just way to much gun for the hunting and shooting I do’. This is how things should actually be. Just have the gun size and capacity you need for what you hunt. There is a place for a 300 win mag but in North America usually you can do the same hunt with a 30-06 or even a 308.

Sometime video clips get shared. nephew pass this on to me. Call me up telling me how helpful this was. All most step by step not sure how many times he had to replay this. After hour by phone talking. Ask how did he like the 300 Great if he had one.. Hour past he don't even own one.. what's up.... Only clue is he will know when he gets one. Hats off to these guy . James enjoyed it so much He is ready with past on knowledge. That alone have to say my self Thanks guys.

[@mtnshooter2487]

I just started to run bergers in my 300 Win. I might be a little barbaric, but I run a long bullet then back it off till the bolt just closes. then I take a mesurment. then back it off .015 to .020" off the lands. Then, reduce the powder 3gr and work back up. ( first time I had a sticky bolt when I forgot to reduce the load,) I run a berger 210 vld match. But it took a little work. Congratz on your hand loads, I think your on the right track. For benchresting, remove the front slingswivel, it will throw a bullet when the recoil hits it. Again, great groups !

[@reloadingtechnologies6120]

Thanks for the great review of our Belted magnum collet resizing die ! Great video overall as well !

[@jamessutherland5107]

25 yrs of reloading 300s for my winchester, Ive never run into an issue of expansion at the belt. I also only neck size, now that Ive said that.............. great video, thx

[@jdkirane7990]

I love my 300 win mag! I don't have any real use for it either. I live in Illinois. But I love hand loading for it and doing some "long range shooting" at my farm. Usually around 300-600 yards. I've got a Savage 110 BA and it shoots amazing! Love it

[@Burks2121]

I'm almost in the same boat. All ranges around here are 100 yards unless I drive 40 minutes to my buddy's parents house. There we can shoot 900ish yards. I dont hunt (cant with a 308 anyways). But damn....it is fun when I can get out there. 300 win mag...eventually. Just for the hell of it.

[@jdkirane7990]

@Mrvenividivici2012 The savage has been doing awesome. Had it out to 1000 yards doing a milk jug challenge and knocked out 2 milk jugs in 4 shots! No sight in and the first time pushing it past 700 yards. The gun is a beast and I have found a handload that it loves.

[@dragon7689]

I just watched the whole thing and didnt even realize it was that long. Great info at a steady pace (it may help that I watched it at 1.5 speed).

[@niio111]

Excellent information. This is the best and longest video I have ever watched on KZbin.

[@hardball107]

Many moons ago I bought a 300WM when I didn't know any better, to each his own but I'm a handloader and between the problems I had with loading and a Winchester M70 that shot 3 moa at best (from what I understand the manufactures now headspace off the shoulder), that rifle wasn't in my safe for any great amount of time replaced by a 300RUM Browning which has been nothing but a tackdriving sweetheart for the last 20 years. Over the years I've learned a few tricks to make a 300WM shoot working with friends rifles but IMHO all the belted magnums are not for me. That being said, this video is great and explains some of the intricacies to loading for belted magnums and is a great resource.

[@cody182005]

Great video with lots of detail!! I use a lee collet neck die which takes out all the guess work out of neck tension and sets it at a perfect 0.002" tension no matter what. I just bump the shoulder a little with a full length die first. I have never had to bother with the special belted magnum die, but mainly think that is because after a half dozen firings the primer pocket goes before i have that issue. I do believe that just moving the shoulder back a little and cheating by "head-spacing off the shoulder" also reduces the issue. Someone chime in and correct me if i'm wrong. But i've maybe had 3 cases that failed to chamber after loading and shooting about 1000 rounds of 300 win mag in two different rifles. Again for me after 5-6 firings on Remington brass it gets tossed because the primer pockets are loose. I don't push the limits but i do load a 300 win to the potential it was designed for. Cheers!

[@mdingess]

Great vid! really looking fwd for 300WM updates. I just started reloading 300WM myself and like you this is my 1st belted round. I am making a USMC M-40A5 clone with the Rem-700 long act in 300WM. So it will look like the M-40A5 but chambered like the Army M-24. I got to play with a M-40A5 thanks to a buddy in weapons Co. when we were at Quantico.

[@xCoreDumpX]

I was happy to see you with the 300win mag. I owned 1 commercial rifle that nearly killed me from product/manufacturing defects ( 6 pin locking bolt system 3 pins failed all at the same time.) in spite of that I had a custom built 28 inch bull barrel off a vz 24 mouser action with a chrome molly barrel with a kanjar trigger with a convex conture at the end of the barrel and the lands and groves in to the throat an extra 30,000. at 1800.$$ cost to me and the first rifle I ever had made to my specs it has turned out to be the best shooting rifle I have yet to have aside from 2 ( one my dad made, and one my grandfather made. The 300 win mag likes heavy bullets and near or exceeding sammi standards. the 300 win mag has the same pressures ( nearily) as the 30.06 with just a longer C.o.l. to get the best from your 300 win mag you need to be at or near 93% pressure. the longer the barrel the heaver the bullet. to get the best accuracy from/ out of a powder bullet combo you need to take the time and effort to pick a powder, a bullet weight and type load 15 or the lowest charge sight in the scope with (3) of the lowest charge using 1 to foul the barrel and a follow up to heat the barrel and step up each charge in 1 to 2 grain incriments untill you find the most accurate group. ( in your videos) you usualy throw the first and last shot so only look for the 3 shot group and you will find your best accuracy. hope this helps as much as your vid help me.

[@jimwinchester5088]

My first entry into reloading was with the 300 win mag in a winchester model 70. After watching your video I went back and measured my 50 rounds of brass just above the belt. They all have 8 firings through them at relatively high pressures and they all measured between .509 and, .511. The brass still looks decent after 8 firings. It may just be my rifle, but before investing 100$ in a die that just resizes above the belt maybe wait and check the brass after a few firings. You may be lucky like me.

[@ewetho]

Was a donation so he is not out anything. He already had one case a bit big so not a bad deal to fix it. I got one a while back and so far mine all pass the check stage. I would use it as necessary not to batch resize just because...

[@bruceheckman8763]

Thank you for the video, and introducing me to a lot of new dies I have not yet used. After loading for a 300 Win Mag for many years I have three comment: (1) My consistency goes up when NOT using magnum primers, (2) Crimping increases consistency, (3) Overall length, as you showed, is very important to a Wim Mag.

[@aracp]

Is. Full length resizing needed if its fire formed to my chamber? I was only going to NECK size. One more thing I never seen the fired brass trimmed. Did I miss something?

[@calve1771]

That "distance to lands" tecnique in order to set a good OAL to start from it's a very good one. Thanks for that and the other things i'm sure i didn't retain 😂

[@robinj.9329]

I pal of mine (former Military!) Has let me shoot his .300 Win. It surprised me because it felt so similar to my .30-06 ! He said these are tailored hand loads! The 150 gr. Hornady bullets at 2900 fps. MV. This fellow likes to do the "soft" loads for our local "Medium Game". Deer, Pronghorn and little Blackies. But then, goes up for power and accuracy for Elk. And on occasion Moose in Alaska. That seems like a very versatile way to use your big, belted magnum!

[@uraniumpenetrator3844]

That's what makes this a great cartridge. It'll shoot bullets from 110gr.-240gr. very well. Options are the great thing about reloadig.

Loved it! Perfect example of matching the angle of the throat to the angle of the bullet ogive. Having those perfectly parallel makes for the best accuracy. That and jump seem to make magic. Spinning the completed round with a drill and polishing with four "O" steel wool will eliminate any burrs and remove any gunk from the surface of the projectile.

You and I seem to be living mirror lives haha. I too have a TC compass in 300WM because I had a compass in 308 that had a 1:8.5 twist and TC let me swap them out. I’m having pretty good results with the 208 ELD-m seated around .015” off with velocity around 2850 using RL22 powder currently. Also, I’ve been told by others who shoot lots of WinMag that you need to anneal after every shot or you will be splitting necks in 2 or 3 firings. Looking forward to seeing more from you and this rifle! I too have the Willis collet die and it’s pretty amazing. You can even size down loaded rounds.

Both very accurate and extremely deadly on elk, deer, bear etc. Also folks keep in mind you have to break that barrel in. Depending on manufacturer ext at least 100rds. I don't know everything never will I claim to but it's what has worked for me with magnum rifles. Good luck and Glod Bless the USA

Firstly, long time fan of your channel from Australia. I usually stick to the videos that relate to calibers (.223/5.56, .357, 22-250 and 7mm.08) I own, but thought I'd watch this one anyway. So envious of the pricing and range available to you in the US. In Australia for example, 100 Hornady brass for 300 Win mag at today's pricing is $210! On average you can multiply by a factor of about 3. Thanks for the great content.

[@BattleChemist]

I will forever remember that live stream and being a part of it as that all rolled in. So excited to see this work out, since I'm going to be setting up to shoot my Rem700 .300WM in Eastern WA where shots can get WAY out there... met a lady that dropped a whitetail at 642 yards, lasered, last year with her 7mmRemMag and Leupold BDC-elevation turret. Can't wait to see the finale of the Mark 248 Mod 1 series like you did with the Mark 262 Mod 1 series (which was FANTASTIC!).

Literally loaded and going to range today for another trip of reloads through my 300WM TC compass. Wasn't impressed with my sig brass but we will see.

[@fondelmaddick5085]

I watched your video. Assuming the rifle isn't c***, I'd be double checking everything is tight, and that the scope is trustworthy. I'd also, believe it or not, avoid ultra high magnification. The procedure you took was very thorough. Possibly, a good cleaning may be all you need, plus bear in mind you had a relatively light barrel, so I'd advise a minimum of 5 minutes rest between groups.

[@338mag]

The long throat issue on this gun is something I see in most all of my Remington model 700's. I also have a .338 and 7mm Rum with really deep throats. I find Sierra Game King and Nosler Custom Comps very jump tolerant. I keep 70% or more of the bullet diameter measurement in contact with the case neck. After that it's finding the right powder and charge and tweeking the depth. Love the videos and honest presentations. Keep up the great work.

[@WHITEBELT44]

I'll save you the trouble.... 70.0gr of IMR4350 in hornady brass with Fed 210 primers pushing a 175 SMK at 3130 out of a 26" barrel. Best I've found. Side note. From everything I have read and found the 300wm gets better accuracy without magnum primers

I'm just not seeing the 1 MOA guarantee with factory ammo in these rifles. I do know they will shoot, but it takes a little work to figure out what they like. Great Video with lots of info.

[@ewetho]

The one to try would be 190SMK GMM.

[@rileyneufeld7001]

Pretty much every rifle under 500 dollars.

[@dominicdevito]

Mine wouldn't print 1 moa either. Even after a lot of load testing. There are definitely some rifles under $500 that will keep it under moa without much load work. The Compass isn't one in my experience

Discovered your channel via Alabama Reloader. I find your content very educational and look forward to viewing some of your previous videos. I'm reloading 6.5 Creedmoor and .280 Remington on a Redding press.

[@maskito4256]

Thank you for the great video. More long videos please.

[@glen4130]

Man do I love these long videos.

[@tonydevich7937]

You are helping me with my only belted mag, now I understand...thanks

[@peadookie]

"go jump in a lake..." had me cracking up 😂 thanks for the video!

[@jiminmaine4639]

Great video. I load 300 WM for my Ruger No 1S and after two or three firings I can't chamber the reloaded rounds. I am going to have to get one of the Innovated Technologies sizing dies. My favorite hunting bullet for this cartridge is the Speer 180 gr Grand Slam. You do a wonderful job of explaining why you are doing all the various things you do. I've been reloading for 50+ years and still am learning new thing. Keep up the good work.

[@jacobstallcup8648]

This was along time ago but did it help at all

[@jiminmaine4639]

Yes, the IT sizing dies works great @@jacobstallcup8648

[@nsstang]

I'm glad you elaborated on the neck sizing portion as that was what I was most confused about and you cleared it up. Great video!

[@Louisiana8critter_getter]

Man people didn’t give you enuff credit for this video thank you

[@jenpsakiscousin4589]

.300wm is my favorite magnum chambering. RL-22 is the powder for the big 300 for me anyway. 180-220 gr bullets. Belted mags have slot of freebore. Round concentricity is crucial and neck sizing only with a wilson type die and wilson type seater will shrink a 1.5" group to a .25" group

“I live in Kentucky and I have absolutely no use for a 300 Win Mag.” On the contrary sir...it is a most excellent whitetail deer cartridge. My preferred cartridge is the Winchester 150gr Power Point or Winchester 150gr XP(Extreme Point). Every deer that I have ever shot with 300 Win Mag 150gr Bullets acted as if they were struck by lightning. I can’t say the same for 180gr Bullets. I have used many different calibers to hunt whitetail deer with and the 300 Win Mag is by far my favorite.

[@forgiven21BM]

Awesome to finally see a win mag video, I have been testing loading 300 win mag as well, so far varget and rl-17 behind a hornady 150gr fmj are showing promise with no pressure signs. I am using a Winchester XBR.

[@BackcountryBrooks]

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I have been having accuracy issues with my Remington 700 but the 220g SMK load is AMAZING!! Thank you!!

[@scarter176]

Epic tire fire ! Lol lol good analogy

[@Bronco197587]

Yeah I reload 300 win. mag. When I first started out I used the wrong brass, but I have no complaints with the Hornady brass so far. I normally get about 3 or 4 firing max before the bulge by the belt gets to much but I look forward to see how that new die you have works.

[@oldschooljack3479]

I've been shooting Federal brass in my 300WM... Several reloads so far. I use my FLS die and bump the shoulder back .002 and go. No issues with belt bulge yet.

[@TheStone2531]

Was your brass from factory loaded ammo, or raw brass? Im using some once fired from some Non Typical factory loads. Seems to bedoin great after a couple loadings so far.
