Thread: 300 Win Mag Powder Recommendations

As per the title looking for powder recommendations for the 300 win mag with a 175/180gr projectile

something you can ACTUALLY buy...that your loading manual says is ok.......

ADI 2217

2313sc , rl22 availability’s?

RL 26 works well, 2213 SC is good also with 180's, most slower burning powders work well.

Reloader 22 goes really good in mine and still see it pop up reasonably often

2217 is a decent powder for 300WM and is actually on the shelf at most shops atm

Thanks for the help. I hope I've got some 2209 on the way, if not I see 2217 available but is listed for 200+gr projectiles do you just start a little lower than the minimum?

2217/H1000 - temperature stable and good velocity, plus relatively easy to source.

77.6 grains with 208 ELD-M in mine.

Greetings SkiHunt,
No you shouldn't go below start loads. Just look at the Hodgdon/ADI on line data which will list it.
