One of the nicest setups I've seen posted in a long time…great rifle man! Love everything you put into the build.
T3 300wsm's shoot really well…its one of my favourite rifles to shoot. Deadly accurate.

Thanks a lot. There's a hell of a lot of nice rigs on these forums, so your comments mean a lot. I'm really happy with how it turned out, it shoulders so well and everything is how I wanted it.
It sure seems like it's going to be a tack driver. Currently under going load development, some promising signs with 208 A-MAXs, but not quite as tight as I'd like (0.7″ 5 shot group), I think the 1:11″ twist barrel is to blame. I currently have some 190gr VLD Hunting loaded up at various depths to try out next time I can get to the range.

Try H4831sc with the 208 amax's…..single loaded with a longer coal, about .050 off the rifling to start…you won't waste your time chasing a load with this combo. Start around 63-64gr and increase in .5 increments till groups come together, think I saw pressure signs at 67 and settled on 66.5gr but my rifle shoots better closer to max loads …once you find the load giving .75-.5″ groups start moving the bullet close to the rifling and it will shrink to tiny ragged holes my friend. My load tightened up about .030-.025 off the rifling, consistent .25-.5moa out to a long way off…
