Does anyone know someone that has rebarreled a savage 338?

I have used h1000, 4350, 4831, 7831

It shoots great with the factory barrel but most everything can be built better. I do shoot 300 smk or 300 Berger hybrids , I have built many savage 260 ai, 6.5x284, 308, 22-243 all have out shot the 338 out to 600 yards . I am always striving to better my rifles and shooting skills and in plus...

I have decided to put a aftermarket barrel on my savage 110 FCP currently chambered in the 338 lapua. I have decided to stick with the 338 lapua . I have decided to go with a prefit shilen barrel that they are going to chamber for a 250 grain berger bullet. What twist rate , diameter , groove...

enter me in the Manners Composite Rifle Stock contest.

I have found some 338 lm brass once fired from black hills . I believe that Norma makes this brass for BH . If so is this a good choice or should I just spend twice the money for lapua brass?

I need some 338 lm brass (Norma or lapua) and some 375 or 408 cheytac brass. Both can be new or once fired

Ok thanks a lot I will shoot it at 1000 this weekend and see what happens

Ok I will try and ramp up the velocities but probably will wait for the lapua brass cause I think these cheap Hornady cases r too soft and swell in the chamber and cause my bolt to lock up

So does most people have better luck with the bergers

I have 49.5 " of drop confirmed at 500 yards when zeroed at 200

Looks like I need to get some retumbo

That's what I figured too but it works out too with bullet drop

Have u found very much fps variance with temp?

Ok I will give that a shot. Do u think that the better brass would help?
