    Finnlight 300wsm loads.

    Anyone have a Finnlight in 300wsm that they load for, If so what bullet works for you?
    Have played around with 2209 behind 168 nosler BT but its not playing the game. I would like to shoot 160-180 grain bullets with ADI. Before I go out and spend more coin was interested to hear others experiences.
    Cheers ears.

    Not a finnlite but my WSM likes 180gr BT and 208 Amax with 2209.
    Never tried the lighter projectiles

    When I had my Ruger 300 WSM I used 65grs AR2209 and 180gr Noslar Accubond, for about 2940 fps good all round load.
