i hit up the LGS last night and BSed with the oldest guy there for a bit and he recommended Hornady SSTs for the best accuracy out of the box. and to be honest i cant really argue that from the research ive done. sadly they didnt have any in stock but i do plan on ordering a box or 2 here soon to try out. i know the Winchester Ballistic silvertip 180gr that im using dont group worth a damn. but in their defense, the barrel was heat soaked.

so im no stranger to hunting and shooting. but the .300 win mag is a new creature to me. what is everyone using or suggesting for tighter groups and better accuracy? right now im shooting the winchester model 70 and using winchester 180gr ballistic silvertip. this is strictly hunting only, need something for these great NWern elk and other furry creatures.
