[QUOTE="D.Camilleri, post: 1508067, member: 2567"] I just got my 338 rum #2 back from the smith. I fit the action to the stock, but didn't bed it for now. Took it out and sighted it in with some factory Federal 225 accubonds, they are horrible for accuracy and way faster than advertised. They are advertised at 3020 and run 3200 in my gun. Anyway, it is on paper, this is a previously used Broughton 5C that I had pulled off two years ago. The barrel wasn't bad, ended up being bent screws in the rail. I had it set back about a neck thickness. I loaded up some 210 scirracos with 96,97 and 98 grs of rl26 and need to try them. I have to load the swifts right at 3.6 oal and that puts me about .008 off the lands. All of my other bullets can be seated out a lot further. We will see if this hurts velocity or not. Stay tuned.
