[QUOTE="Grumulkin, post: 957086, member: 8239"] I wouldn't hesitate to try it. I doubt very much it will come apart and it won't damage your barrel. That said, the 100 gr. bullets may very well not be as accurate as heavier bullets and I don't see any advantage to them except perhaps cost in a 300 Weatherby. Weatherbys are known for having generous freebore and you won't be able to seat a 100 gr. bullet very close to the lands. If you're looking for more velocity, also consider that a 100 gr. bullet will lose velocity faster than a 168 grain or heavier bullet. If you want a varmint load a 168 gr. bullet will kill varmints; really. If you want less recoil, you should have bought a 30/06. [/QUOTE]
