    Hornady .338 lapua brass issues?!

    Hornady .338 lapua brass issues?!

    I am having exactly the same issue. I would like to say it has been resolved, but to no avail. I have tried Lapua, norma and BHA brass and have had issues with all of them. I thought perhaps the chamber was too tight, so I down loaded my reloads to min levels, FL resized and still have the...

    getting into 50 bmg

    I can't tell any difference in the m33 Ammos by govt or Barrett . There are some good smaller ammo makers out there. Reliant and thunder ammo come to mind. I suggest that you get the rifle and chronograph some ammo with a low cost scope. Once you find something your rifle likes you can...

    getting into 50 bmg

    I am not familiar with the Noreen, but will look into it. Unless you are trying to shoot 1000+ yards surplus ammo will do just fine for "shooting things" I have shoot surplus ammo from around the world. Argentina, Korea, Isreal, Russia and have not experience a hang fire with any of it...

    338 rum stuck cases

    What type brass are you using? i was wondering if different brass (win, lapua, norma, hornady) gave you the same problem. Like you this is the only caliber that I have issues with. (10K+ reloads/year), so I have some experience but certain learn something new each year. I have a couple...

    338 Lapua cases stuck in Savage gun?

    I have same issues with a McMillian. Couple of good ideas posted here. 1 I will shorten the length of the brass 2. I will go down on the powder *H1000, and see what kind of velocity I get. I still want to shoot a mile. I have seen no signs of over pressure I have turned the necks...
