Shooting at ice, is in my opinion the best target thyere is, but there is a season for it. You can really reach way out there. My 338LM rifle has now more then 5000 rounds through it, and it still shoots a 3 shot group at 0.75 moa at 2200 meters. In this video, I used 2 shots to get on...

I mostly shoot steel and rocks. I have a nice range, that takes me out to 1500 meters. I try to shoot everyday during the spring an summer, now in the winter, daylight is real short, and shooting can only be done in the weekends. My targets are mostly 12"x12" Hardox steel plates. They...

I use a JVC Everio camera for fimling ELR. It has 40x optical zoom, and a very nice 100x digital zoom. You can zoom 1000x digital, but the quality is very poor. It cost me 300 usd here in Norway, I bet it is way cheaper in the US. My worst struggle with this camera, is that when Auto focus is...

I have already shot this bullet out to 2843 yards, with no problems, so there is no secret to it. This was from my 338LM at 2929 fps and I was at sea level. When I get my new 338LM Imp barrel, 3000 yards should be no problem. I ran out of scope at 2843, that is why I did not shoot it further.

This is impressive for sure. And makes it even harder for me to wait for my new barrel in my 338LM, which now will be 338LM Imp. If it is ok, I would like to share a video that I did yesterday. I managed to set up my camera, and film when I shot at 2135 yards with my 338LM. Used 300 grs...

According to Applied Ballistics, and my note book, the speed of the bullet was 994 fps at 2200 yards. I do not know how accurate the AB for Android is, but I guess it is not that much off either. Where does the transonic range end? Thanks for the reply :)

Here are som pics form when I tested 300 grs Bergers at 2200 yards at sea level. MV was 2736 fps out of my 338LM. It was a very mild load, but it held tight groups at 1000 yards. The 5 shot group measures 40 inches, including the coldbore shot. The bullet has no problems going through the...

Do you know the ES on your ammo? It would have been interesting to see if you shot over a chrono, and see if your high hits was a result og higher MV with that actual shot. I have shot my 338LM out to 2580 meters, using the 300 grs Berger OTM, and I did not have any issues with vertical spread...

Nice video. I use the same bullet in my 300 wm, and I have shot 5 deer the last two days with it. Bullet works great, only shot out to about 600 yards, (540 meters), and it made a clean kill. Shot a deer today using the new 220 grs Lapua OTM L-Scenar, and it also works great. Exit was the size...

Test fired a few rounds at 1941 yards today. Used 96 grs of Viht N570 behind the 300SMK, and opened fire at at spot on a rock. Cold bore was a 1/4 moa low and right, and the rest of the shots landed about 1 moa low of my aiming point. Vertical spread was very low, it seemed. Happy with the...

Thanks for your input, Kirby, I am convinced the 300 SMK is my bullet of choice. I have loaded up some ammo, and test shot it out to 1250 meters. Mv is 2933 fps, using 96 grs of Viht N570. That is not too bad. Will test some more tomorrow, and try to film some hits at long range. Hunting...

I am having a 338LM Imp built as we speak. I have had a 338LM for the last 2 years, but want some more punch out at long range. It will be throated for the 300 grs Berger OTM. I have been using Viht N570 powder, and will continoue to do so in the Imp version also. Barrel will be 32" long. Any...

That is some nice shooting Jeff :) Just a little OT. Speaking of using a cam through the spottingscope, I just made a small video on the subject. It is in Norwegian, but I can explain. The rock is 2500 meters away. I first use the camera without the scope, and zoom in. The picture is not...

Oohhh, that is sweet. If I can get close to 3100 fps, I can probably shoot at my 2860 meter target, which is out of reach now :) We have big limitations regarding big bore calibers in Norway, and 375 CT and such are hard to get legal. So a pumped up 338 is the way to go, and so far, I have shot...

Hehe, it is a heavy rifle, it weighs 32 lbs including the silencer. When using the Vektor muzzle brake, it kicks like a 223, and I can easily spot myself and see the trace when I shoot at 500 meters and out. I really like it, but would be awsome to have a bit more power. My next barrel will...
