Bullet weight from 1000-1750 yards

[James n TN]

I just purchased a 300 WM bench rifle with a Lilja 1-10" barrel 31" long. What would be the ideal bullet weight for the ranges from 1k - 1750 k yards?

I'm aware I have to shot what the rifle likes but maybe with choices from what you guys suggests I'll find the right combo.


Thanks in advanced.

I use 230 OTM Bergers and they have worked well for me out to 1,760

Thanks I'll order a few I figured I just as well order them from 210-230 grns but if there is a certain bullet weight that shines over what's available I'm all in if my rifle will shoot them.

I'm using them in my 26" 1-10 Krieger and they group great and stabilize awesome

What are the differences between the 230 grn hybrid and the 230 grn OTM

 

[rhildy77]

BC is a little better on the hybrid

The 208gr Amax, 210gr, 215gr, 230gr Berger would all be worth a look to see what shot best.
