Building a 300 Weatherby Mag. Just looking to go to 2k yds with it.  Damn thing will thump the hell out of you, so I decided to get a recoil absorbing stock to (try to) start load development. Well, felt recoil was considerably lowered, but everything forward of the recoil absorber bucks pretty wildly, so I wont be shooting it much until I get a brake installed, which I should have done sooner. It probably wouldn't kick so hard if I used lighter bullets, but I don't see the point of having that much powder capacity just to push 150-180 gr bullets. Have some 208 A-Max's ready to test and have some 215 and 230 gr Bergers sitting around. Anyhow anyone have any ELR experience with a 300 WBY?  
Anyhow

Dropped it off at the gunsmith a couple days ago, told him to take his time, but I'm finally getting a brake put on. now just have to get some good glass.

What have you been looking at?

Well I've been waiting on them to call my powerball nnumbers so I can get Schmidt & Bender PMII 3-27x, but they wont call them, starting to think it's rigged. I'd like to get something nice line S&B, Nightforce ir swarovski, but thats gonna take quite a while rosacea up for.

I have some information that might help you.  The 230 Bergers can't be pushed fast enough in the 300 WBY to justify their use.  Your best bet will be the 215 Hybrids.  With this load you will need a 30 (minimum) or 40 (optimum) MOA base and a scope with 120 MOA minimum of elevation out of the box.  To get the 300 WBY to 2K will require @100 MOA. This 215 Berger load will drop around 2100 inches at 2K.
