Savage has for a long time been the go to for inexpensive accuracy. The 110 line set the standard for quality off the shelf trigger units. Just remembered that back in the 90's i bought some remington 200 gr. safari grade swift A frame ammo for my .300 win mag. I wonder id remington made that load in a .300 wsm. Honestly it was a huge overkill with extra recoil but i got pin point accuracy with it from my Weatherby/leaupold set up.
Channel gets better and better! Love all big caliber Rifles and revolvers. Brother 300 Win SM is a great round and barely slower than 300 Win mag and almost same power. Sweet!👌🤠🦖
Yes, the 300 WSM is a wonderful 30 magnum but there are larger ones that are even faster. I have owned the 300 win mag then a Rem 700 in 300 RUM and then went to using 300 Weatherby magnum rifles which I own a custom Mauser 98 in 300 Wby mag and a Weatherby mark 5 in 300 Wby mag that just got a new 27-inch Pac Nor SS super match barrel.
I bought the Remington 700 in the 300WSM when it was called the Elk Edition, this was approximately back in 2008 . Barns use to produce the MRX bullet which was in my opinion the Best Bullet ever designed. Being 74 years old and reloading since I was 12 years old, with the old Lee reloading kit, there was no press all you got was a sizing tube and a shaft that allowed you to push the wads or bullet after you would scoop of powder- it was the simplest possible system.
Picked up a savage 110 left hand 300 wsm with a bull barrel and beautiful wood stock for my wife last year. She got tired of the 30-06 not being able to reach out as flat as the rest of our groups 300 win. That 300 wsm is a shooter
Hey mate...greetings from Australia. Big fan of your channel and really appreciate the effort you put in to pushing out a video per day. Right behind you in believing that precision and accuracy are worthy aspirations. Have had my eye on .300 WSM for a little while now and this vid (no doubt Pt II as well) provided useful insight. Thanks again...
I have 3 and 2 don't shoot for shit yet. Well my 25-06 does with only one kind of ammo out of the 5 I tried but the bolt is awful. My 7 prc is terrible sprays bullets in groups no better than 2.5-3.5 inches. I just bought weatherby select plus 177 grain hammer custom ammo for it. $90 a box. If that doesn't work savage can have it back and figure out the issue. My 30-06 is around 12 years old and it's a tack driver though I'll give it that. Used to have a savage 111 in 300 win mag too that was also about 12 years old and it shot great. So seems like the new ones aren't that great. At least to me
@@edwardabrams4972 many 300 mags I am sure are accurate at long range if done by a Highly skilled gunsmith using quality barrels and actions and the 300 Wby mag for the Pennsylvania long range shooting club has been a favorite for 1000-yard shoots. So, saying one 300 kind of magnum is better than the other wouldn't be true.
That’s absolutely fantastic Adam. Makes me smile too. Especially since 300 WSM is one of my favorite cartridges and Savage has been the only rifles I’ve owned which sadly is only 3. As you know from my comments on your last video and on IG, if it were available in left hand I would buy it in a heartbeat and sell my right handed Savage Long Range Hunter, because I want one that is threaded but accurate. If you have an elk hunt you should definitely take this exact rifle 😎🇺🇸
I was waiting for you to drop these videos before I bought one, but I went ahead and ordered yesterday because I didnt think there would be an issue. Glad I did. Looking forward to it getting in.
I have a Savage 111 in 300 Win Mag and it loves the Remington Scirroco. My problem is that it is almost impossible to find that ammunition anymore. Luckily I stocked up when I could find it.
Howdy from SoDak WTW and Halfmilesniper. Hard to beat the 300 wsm. Great caliber. Have had one for the last 23 years. Super accurate and have taken alot of critters with it too.
Heavy barrel Savage riffles are a shoe in if you spend the money & get the long range ELD-X-M or other. If you haven't tried the Savage Desert TAC. in 6mm creed then you are missing out. love the vids man Keep em going
You have got to be happy with those results. I know I would . I want to get a CVA cascade long range hunter in 7mm rem mag but I might be having second thoughts . You certainly are getting fantastic results with your 2 savage 110 trail hunters ! Enjoyed the video 👍
I have a browning x-bolt 300wsm and I hand load for it also. The 300wsm excels with 150 and 165 grain bullets. Accubonds shoot 1 hole! The 300wsm does it all!
Love it that thing is a absolute shooter, my 6.5 prc likes the fusion stuff I reload but the 143 hornady is lights out. I live in middle TN about 60 miles west of Nashville you should come over sometime and we'll wack some deer. I pray that y'all have a blessed weekend
I’ve got a Winchester model 70 in 270 WSM that my brother in law won in a raffle years ago…. No sights drilled n tapped but no scope ever mounted still has the tag hangin on the trigger guard
I really like the 270 WSM I also have one and it is a good shooter biggest problem is finding ammunition and brass for it I have made some brass up by running the 300 WSM brass through the 270 WSM dies
You have much improved in accuracy since your days of missing a 12' gong from 10'away with your EDC 9mm unto now regularly shooting half inch groups with anything.
The 7mm WSM is one of my favorite rifles. The WSM series is still very relevant in today's crowded cartridge world. I've never owned the 300 variant, but I'm sure it's to the 300 Win Mag what the 7mm is to the Rem Mag. I'd have to say, though, my 284 Winchester can do 90%+ what the 7 Mag can do with a shorter barrel, lighter recoil, less muzzle blast, and generally speaking more accurately.
good groups might have try those federal fusion and Remingtons in my 110 trailhunter but in my neck of the woods been finding a lot of Winchester supreme hornady outfitters and Barnes ttx
Here where I live 300 WSM factory ammo is approx $3 per round. If you are a hunter who only fires one or two rounds no problem, but in a 40 round competition, you have to reload or go broke.
I use the 150g fusion in my tikka t3, 300WSM. Didn't know it's discontinued 😮 Anyhoot, I get the same groups as you did with the 150g & 180g Federals. I'll hafta try the Remington. Thanks for the good info.
Groups like that, with a 180gr bullet. Out of 300wsm. Small miracle just happened. 270wsm is the only short that makes since to me. But there few and fare between.
I just checked and I think you are right about Federal no longer producing 150gr Fusion for the 300wsm. They are still producing the Fusion in both 165gr and 180gr, though.
That's impressive. I've given up on Savages since their quality has gone way down (Swiss cheese bores from end to end) but that is the kind of accuracy that Savage routinely had 10 to 15 years ago.
When it comes time for you to reload for the 300wsm, you can check out the Speer gold dot 150s. If they still produce them, pretty sure they do but it’s hard to catch them in stock, they are rumored to be the same bullet as the fusion factory loads. Rifles I have that shot the fusion factory load also shot the gold dot well in reloads. The gold dot and the Speer impact are excellent budget friendly bonded bullet options. I’ve got the Speer impact shooting phenomenally out of a Browning xbolt in 6.5prc.
I like that you haven't turned your back on the 300 WSM, like most of the other youtubers have. I have Gotten 3/8" groups from the federal fusion 165 grain.
Ok I'm going to give you the pat on the back either way . I would have bet on the ol blue box federal . I bet it would do a 150gn blue box real nice . You have me at 300 anything either way 🤪
I had an older shooter tell me ine time that any load that would consistantly shoot 1 inch at 100 yards was worth testing at 300yards and to not be suprised if the load rhat was grouping in an inch group might wind up shooting better groups at 300 yds than somthing that was grouping a half inch at 100yds.
I have a model 70 super grade in the 300 WSM and it does kick darn hard it shoots perty good but I have to use my past shoulder pad otherwise with being on blood thinners after having a a heartache it leaves my shoulder and arm bruised up
brotha adam , great vid n rifles again my friend , awesome shootin as always , keep checking gunbroker for a 444 marlin lever action for cheaper than normal price perhaps ? , though ive never used it myself any either , lol, lol , thanks n talk soon bro > tom !
n maybe tolliver's will get one in someday n tell your wantin one , check small n mom n pop 2A gun shops in your state , i bet there's one there for cheap , ask around , patriots usually help eachother out ya know , talk soon , > tom !
I have several Savage rifles and all of them shoot well except for my Savage Ultralight 300 WSM. That one is super picky. I have tried every ammo that hits the shelves and the only one that shoots good is the Remington Premier Scirocco 180 grain. Unfortunately it looks like Remington has stopped production of it.
I'm trying to decide on a short action caliber for my first bolt action build and am looking at 6.5 PRC, 6.8 Western, and 300 WSM. I have heard some people say that the 300 WSM can have feeding issues. I know you're a big fan of this caliber. Have you had any feeding issues with this rifle?
Your an azz Whoot.. You pretty much got me convinced I want this rifle.. lol. I have a few boxes of 300wsm and about a 100 rounds of brass I realize I still have after getting rid of the rifle I had..

You're exactly right, I love seeing budget rifles with factory ammo getting sub moa groups! That Savage TH is impressive.
Savage is the best manufacturer of accurate rifles right out of the box.
must of never had a tikka or sako
Tikkas or sako as already started
And Tikka actions actually cycle without binding up.
😅😅
Tikka 4 sure

300 WSM is the ballistic twin of the 300 H&H. 👍👍

Hey all its ol mouse hunter john health been down a bit ,, God bless you all,, Semper Fidelis
Good to see you
ooohrah n semper fi marine brotha john , i was active 93' to 97' , i am a old salty cpl. here , talk soon bro > tom !
Purdy dang impressive for 300 WSM that a working man could own.
Moral of the story is 300 WSM is basically a lazer beam
Yes, the 300 WSM is a wonderful 30 magnum but there are larger ones that are even faster.
I have owned the 300 win mag then a Rem 700 in 300 RUM and then went to using 300 Weatherby magnum rifles which I own a custom Mauser 98 in 300 Wby mag and a Weatherby mark 5 in 300 Wby mag that just got a new 27-inch Pac Nor SS super match barrel.
I'm a fan of a 200 gr. in the .300 WSM 👍 It's a great flying bullet. Great videos and choice on materials! Thank you.
The value we receive from your channel is unparalleled
🙏🙏🙏 appreciate you watching
All of my Savage rifles all shoot. Just no frills
Looking forward to more tests like these!
More to come!
Best gun channel in CZcams!!!!
🙏🙏🙏
I bought the Remington 700 in the 300WSM when it was called the Elk Edition, this was approximately back in 2008 . Barns use to produce the MRX bullet which was in my opinion the Best Bullet ever designed. Being 74 years old and reloading since I was 12 years old, with the old Lee reloading kit, there was no press all you got was a sizing tube and a shaft that allowed you to push the wads or bullet after you would scoop of powder- it was the simplest possible system.
The Lee powder scoop was dangerous because not all powders have the same burn rate
Picked up a savage 110 left hand 300 wsm with a bull barrel and beautiful wood stock for my wife last year. She got tired of the 30-06 not being able to reach out as flat as the rest of our groups 300 win. That 300 wsm is a shooter

Great to see the scope height right where it should be over your other videos 👍🏻 keep up the great work!
Remi Warren says the 200 grain Federal Terminal Ascent is his favorite cartridge for the 300 WSM.
💪💪
These ammo comparisons videos are the best
I've never owned a Savage that wasn't a shooter.
..this barrel seems a good booolat slingaa 🎉
🍻🇸🇪🍻
I own like 30 rifles and not a single one is a savage.
but my Ruger M77 MkII 338 has been stacking holes @ 250 yards since 1996
I have 3 and 2 don't shoot for shit yet. Well my 25-06 does with only one kind of ammo out of the 5 I tried but the bolt is awful.

Both of my 110's shoot excellent! Thanks for the vids
I think the 300 WSM is an excellent choice for both hunting and long-range shooting.
How does it compare to 300PRC downrange tho?
@@1nfamyXthe 300wsm holds the 1,000 yard record in accuracy 🙌
@@edwardabrams4972 is it still supersonic tho?
@@edwardabrams4972 many 300 mags I am sure are accurate at long range if done by a Highly skilled gunsmith using quality barrels and actions and the 300 Wby mag for the Pennsylvania long range shooting club has been a favorite for 1000-yard shoots.

That rifle will keep getting better also

It is a good one for sure
Adam, Great improvement you are deploying the proper techniques Brass .My 280 Remington loves the Federal fusion. The rifle is a Browning A bolt. .
Check the seating depth on the ammo that shoots, that should be your depth when reloading cheers Yogi ✌️🤙
TAC DRIVER 😊👍🏼
🎉🎉🎉
300WSM is my fave for Moose/Elk/Bear
Another excellent video, that might be another I consider picking up
I have a Savage 111 in 300 Win Mag and it loves the Remington Scirroco. My problem is that it is almost impossible to find that ammunition anymore. Luckily I stocked up when I could find it.
Sometimes Cabelas has it
That rifle is accurate, I'm impressed
That is some good free advertisement for Savage. Very impressive groups.

I love the 150gr , speed over weight for my 300 wsm
Great vid! My 300 win mag likes the federal premiums.
This is your new all around "western" rifle !
Yup
Wow love how that shoots gro
ups. Love the vids
Thanks for watching
Great Job !! Lots of good info !!
Thanks for watching!
Great video, as always!

Very fun and entertaining video!! Love it ✌️✌️

Why would you shoot a 300 wsm for 150 g bullet?
Savage are fantastic shooters. It's a great rifle for a great price.
300 WSM is my favorite of the short mags. The 325 WSM is next favorite one. Ain't nothing wrong with a Savage.
300wsm and 270 wsm are the Hardee’s brass to find for us handloaders
That minimally releaved receiver should be very stiff. Savage bolt guns are an amazing value.
Love it that thing is a absolute shooter, my 6.5 prc likes the fusion stuff I reload but the 143 hornady is lights out. I live in middle TN about 60 miles west of Nashville you should come over sometime and we'll wack some deer. I pray that y'all have a blessed weekend
💪💪🦌🦌🦌
The 300wsm is a long time favorite
Love these videos for some reason lol
Appreciate you watching
Love the short mags
Me too
With those accurate low cost rifle, you have the money to get a good scope or a lot more money for ammo.
Amazing that all those different brands and weights shot so close together.
I’ve got a Winchester model 70 in 270 WSM that my brother in law won in a raffle years ago…. No sights drilled n tapped but no scope ever mounted still has the tag hangin on the trigger guard
I really like the 270 WSM I also have one and it is a good shooter biggest problem is finding ammunition and brass for it I have made some brass up by running the 300 WSM brass through the 270 WSM dies

My fav cartridge
Swift bullets are among the best out there. That would be my pick without hesitation. A close second would be the Fusions
I love your show :)
🙏🙏🙏
Groups like that, with a 180gr bullet. Out of 300wsm. Small miracle just happened. 270wsm is the only short that makes since to me. But there few and fare between.
I have had good luck with all my savage rifles
Nice groups again. The Scirocco or the ELDX Federal I would take anywhere in North America for anything. Thank you.
I just checked and I think you are right about Federal no longer producing 150gr Fusion for the 300wsm. They are still producing the Fusion in both 165gr and 180gr, though.
That's impressive. I've given up on Savages since their quality has gone way down (Swiss cheese bores from end to end) but that is the kind of accuracy that Savage routinely had 10 to 15 years ago.
I love the 300 wsm, I have the older Savage 10 in 300 wsm. I'd actually choose it over my 300 WM.
All my rifles shoot really well with the American Whitetail when I couldnt find primers to reload my berger bullets
When it comes time for you to reload for the 300wsm, you can check out the Speer gold dot 150s.

I'll check
That is a shooter!!!
I love it
I like to sight in at 1" high because it gives a good maximum point blank range.
I like that you haven't turned your back on the 300 WSM, like most of the other youtubers have.
I have Gotten 3/8" groups from the federal fusion 165 grain.
Ok I'm going to give you the pat on the back either way . I would have bet on the ol blue box federal . I bet it would do a 150gn blue box real nice . You have me at 300 anything either way 🤪
👍😊 you can pick what you need for the game your after.
I love my 300wsm. However it’s a challenge to find ammo , when I do I buy them out
Interesting that you have good luck with the fusion ammo. The only fusion I have good luck with is my car 😅
I had an older shooter tell me ine time that any load that would consistantly shoot 1 inch at 100 yards was worth testing at 300yards and to not be suprised if the load rhat was grouping in an inch group might wind up shooting better groups at 300 yds than somthing that was grouping a half inch at 100yds.
Fine caliber would you think of putting some weights on your sled rest it will improve recoil and return to battery
Have you done a review or put hands on a 110 Tactical? Don't remember if I've asked you that previously. Great groups brother...
Not yet
Fun fact about the federal fusion the bullets are Speer Gold Dot
I still think 300WSM is a great cartridge
I have a model 70 super grade in the 300 WSM and it does kick darn hard it shoots perty good but I have to use my past shoulder pad otherwise with being on blood thinners after having a a heartache it leaves my shoulder and arm bruised up

I would like to see a group comparison of the 180 and 150 gainers that was the best at 100 yards done on 300 yards please
I have several Savage rifles and all of them shoot well except for my Savage Ultralight 300 WSM. That one is super picky. I have tried every ammo that hits the shelves and the only one that shoots good is the Remington Premier Scirocco 180 grain. Unfortunately it looks like Remington has stopped production of it.
I like the heavy boolots
Me too
If you can find Federal Fusion 180 grain in 300WSM, try it.
My guess is going to be Powershok!
You should try that barrel tuner by Eric Cortina. Just sayin, that would be a fun video!
Have one. Video soon
That's why you reload you go for grouping. I like light an fast.
I'm trying to decide on a short action caliber for my first bolt action build and am looking at 6.5 PRC, 6.8 Western, and 300 WSM. I have heard some people say that the 300 WSM can have feeding issues. I know you're a big fan of this caliber. Have you had any feeding issues with this rifle?
I have owned 2. Don't recall any feeding issues
Your an azz Whoot.. You pretty much got me convinced I want this rifle.. lol. I have a few boxes of 300wsm and about a 100 rounds of brass I realize I still have after getting rid of the rifle I had..
🤣🤣🤣
