Hey y'all,
Anyone got a good hunting load for Hornady 300 gr XTP w/ Win296?
Thanks

In my '92 Winchester (20" barrel) 17.8 grains of Win 296 and Hornady's 300 grain HP-XTP....yields about 1,350 FPS

It yields a lot of recoil too!!

10-4. I had a load for 300XTP w/ 20.6gr W296 but the recoil was pretty stout out of my Sup Redhawk. I took a doe with that load last weekend and it did a pretty good job on her.
