I recently bought a rifle in 300WSM and have never loaded for this caliber. Any suggestions for powder would be appreciated. I am loading on a Dillon machine so the powder I select should be fine enough to work thru the Dillon powder measure. I have some 760 which I use for my 308's, would that work for the 300WSM?

  I use Mag pro for my 270WSM, it seems to work well in the short mags. I think 760 is a tad fast.

  I use MagPro for my .300 WSM for my 165gr. SST loads. It meters well out of my Lyman powder measure.

  My uncle has a WAL-Mart Winchester in 300WSM he uses IMR4350 with 150gr Noslers BT and get fabulous velocities ~3400 fps and <1.5 inch groups at 300!
  
  I believe he is that lucky blind squirrel!

  I have been using H 414r in my 270 wsm and 243 wssm with pretty good results.

  When i had my 300WSM. Browning A-Bolt I used 65.5 of IMR4350 with WLRM primers. Shot all on a dime. I was using Horn 165 BTSP
