Which Brand is considered the most consistant and has the closest tolerances for their ammo?
Looking for 180 gr. 300 Win Mag ammo and want the best performing and most consistant.
I don't reload so what is the next best thing? Also your opinions on bullets for deer, hogs etc ..... thanks in advance.

I think you should get 2 boxes of Fed. Premium Trophy Bonded Bear Claw 200 grain. BTW, I just happen to have 2 boxes.

Plain ole Rem corlokt or Hornadys have been the most consistant in all the rifles I shoot factory fodder in.

Black Hills, Federal, Hornady, and/or Win.. You need to try each and see which works best in your rifle.

I'm not a big fan of the Hornady loads. With the last box I had, I was getting groups of about 4 inches at 100 yards off of a bench rest (.300 WBY). I fired some of my reloads on the same trip and got groups less than 1". Maybe I just got a bad box, but I don't really trust them.
